It is not wild to claim Tottenham Hotspur have been the best team in English league football this season, even though Chelsea lead the Premier League heading into the final weeks.
And once again Spurs were branded excellent bridesmaids, losing to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday evening.
Despite the Lilywhites having the better of the game, the Blues secured a 4-2 win in a game which will go down in history as one of the greatest ever semi-finals in football’s oldest cup competition.
Spurs twice fought back from a goal down to tie the game - Harry Kane and Dele Alli cancelling out Willian’s free-kick and penalty - but superb goals from Eden Hazard and Nemanja Matic were enough to set up a Wembley final against either Arsenal or Manchester City.
