Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Richard 'Crackers' Cracknell along with actors Ricky J Norwood and TJ Ramini as Ange Postecoglou's quest to end Tottenham's trophy drought continued as victory over Manchester City booked a Carabao Cup quarter-final with Manchester United.

The Spurs boss claimed recently he always wins silverware in his second season - and remained on course to fulfil his promise after an entertaining, eventful encounter. Timo Werner, who had a mixed evening, scored his first goal of the season with an emphatic finish after five minutes, before Pape Sarr doubled the home advantage 20 minutes later with a with superb low right-foot finish from 25 yards.

Spurs, though, suffered a setback when they lost key defender Micky van de Ven with a hamstring injury in the 14th minute, and City setting up a tense second half when Matheus Nunes pulled one back in the fourth minute of first-half added time. City keeper Stefan Ortega kept his side in the contest with fine saves from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevki and Richarlison, while Werner fired wide when clean through before limping off with a groin muscle injury.

City, who suffered a casualty of their own when the lively Savinho was taken off on a stretcher, almost snatched a late leveller, but Yves Bissouma made a superb block on the line from Nico O'Reilly's effort. Spurs, without a trophy since their 2008 win in this competition, will be delighted to have bounced back from the weekend's disappointing Premier League loss at Crystal Palace with such a significant win. They will now host another Manchester side in United, with the game taking place in the week commencing 16 December.
