Some Spurs fans react to the penalty shootout loss to Chelsea

Tottenham Hotspur entered tonight’s semi final second leg one goal to the good, but without their four highest scoring players.

Harry Kane and Dele Alli are out injured until early March, Heung Min Son is still away at the Asia Cup, and Lucas Moura was only fit enough for the bench.

Spurs didn’t seem to know how they were supposed to play in the first half, with Llorente unable to hold the ball up, and Eriksen and Lamela no where near the play.

Defensively they were poor, and they created nothing going forward either, soon finding themselves 2-0 down, 2-1 on aggregate.

However, it was as if someone had flicked a switch in the second half, as Poch changed tactics slightly emphasising a lot of play wide down the left hand flank with Danny Rose.

His crossing eventually led to a Llorente goal, Spurs drew level, and penalties beckoned.

But without many recognisable takers, it was not to be Tottenham’s day, and they fell to a 4-2 loss from the spot.

Here’s how some fans reacted:
