We got them! There was an FA Cup match in England’s national stadium, but somehow nobody who wasn’t actually at the game got to see it. That’s stupid and ridiculous, but it is what it is. Tottenham overcame a scoreless first half to win 3-0 in the FA Cup third round, behind a brace from Harry Kane and a long range blast from “Super” Jan Vertonghen, his first goal since 2015.
