The BURKS

The VAR, Graham Scott, in Stockley Park was in use in just the seventh minute as Lamela struck home from close range, but replays showed Llorente had tugged Harrison McGahey's shirt in the box as referee Tierney ruled it out.

Lucas Moura then looked to have been brought down in the box by McGahey, but despite a VAR check, Tierney waved play on. Son finally put Spurs ahead from 15 yards shortly after via Lamela's assist.

Wembley then descended into confusion as Kieran Trippier was fouled on the edge of the box by Matt Done, but after deliberation with the VAR, Tierney awarded a penalty, deeming that the foul continued inside the box.

Son stepped up, stuttered towards the end of his kick and scored, but referee Tierney ruled the spot kick out and booked Son for an illegal feign, a rare and bizarre sight which created mass confusion among home fans and visible anger in Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Rochdale then equalised moments later through Humphrys, converting from close range from Andy Cannon's fine ball as Spurs were caught sleeping, before Cannon himself hit the post with a low drive in first-half stoppage time.

However, Spurs came out in the second half and steam-rolled the League One side, taking the lead through Llorente's lifted finish over Josh Lillis, and he got his second goal six minutes later, poking home from Lucas' fine assist.

Llorente completed his 13-minute hat-trick with a close-range header from Son's lifted cross at the byline, and the South Korean turned goalscorer shortly after, tapping into an empty net from Lamela's unselfish ball across goal.

Lamela hit the post with a late free-kick, but there was still time for Walker-Peters to grab his first Spurs goal in stoppage time, nudging under Lillis after a one-two with Dele Alli.
