Foyth guards the ball as Huddersfield attempt to win it back.
Davinson Sanchez 6/10Barely troubled all match, he merely swept the ball along the backline and acted as a last line of defence on the odd occasion when Huddersfield did get in dangerous positions.Jan Vertonghen 7/10A brilliant counter-press early on resulted in a chance for Llorente and he was exemplary throughout. The Premier Leagues most consistent performer?Vertonghen’s excellent work was rewarded.6

Christian Eriksen 7/10Not a thrilling display but a measured one. He kept things ticking over and was involved in almost every attack. Pochettino will have been delighted and he should still have energy for Manchester City second leg.Lucas Moura 8/10Had to be chopped down in the opening moments to stop him getting a shot away and provided the pace in attacking areas. He took his first goal fantastically, his second was impressive given his first touch, while the third was a sumptuous strike from Heung-Min Son’s assist. He will hope to be involved against City on Wednesday.Lucas wellies the ball into the back of the net for Spurs’ second.6

Fernando Llorente 7/10Dropped deep to win possession in the air and did well. It took him a while to get his link up play going and once he did he showed off his impressive footwork. Sadly a goal didnt quite come his way.Substitute: Oliver Skipp – 5/10Kept things ticking over with some simple passes and some tactical fouls.Substitute: Danny Rose – N/AOnly on the pitch for a few minutes.Substitute: Heung-Min Son – N/AOnly on the pitch for a few minutes.
