Tottenham match analysis: Christian Eriksen keeps the FA Cup dream ticking as Mauricio Pochettino moves closer to first trophy

Tottenham have reached the FA Cup semi-final thanks to a convincing 3-0 win over Swansea City.

Giuseppe Muro was our reporter at the Liberty Stadium, and here is his match analysis…

No Harry Kane? No problem for Spurs

Spurs are set to be without Kane for around six weeks because of his knee injury but they showed they are well equipped to deal with his absence. Tottenham did not miss Kane at all as they marched into the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Chelsea and Manchester City will provide tougher tests after the international break but against Swansea they showed they cope without Kane.

Son will lead the line in Kane’s absence

It was expected Heung-min Son would start up front and Mauricio Pochettino started the South Korean over Fernando Llorente against Swansea.

Pochettino gave a clear view of how Tottenham will set up without Kane, with Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela operating in central areas behind Son and Lucas Moura providing width.

Great Dane does it again

Christian Eriksen can be the man to lead the way for Spurs with Kane on the sidelines. Eriksen scored twice, ran the game from midfield and inspired Tottenham to victory against Swansea with a man-of-the-match performance.
