Tottenham Hotspur narrowly held onto their League Cup semi-final position with an exhilarating 4-3 victory over Manchester United at home. Manager Ange Postecoglou remained firm in his commitment to an entertaining style of play, even as the team nearly let a 3-0 lead slip due to goalkeeper errors.
The match seemed secure at 3-0 after 54 minutes, but two blunders by keeper Fraser Forster allowed United back into contention. A late goal by Son Heung-min and Dominic Solanke's two strikes ensured Tottenham's win, mirroring a similar nerve-wracking home performance against Chelsea.
