Former England captain Alan Shearer slammed Tottenham after their FA Cup defeat to Middlesbrough.
Teenager Josh Coburn was the hero as Boro produced another Cup upset by knocking out Spurs with a 1-0 extra-time victory in the fifth round.
"This was no fluke," Shearer said on the BBC. "Spurs were so flaky, typical Tottenham.
"They were the better team from start to finish. They were first to every tackle, they created chances, and had more energy.
"Certainly in extra-time, they made the better substitutions and Chris Wilder can be extremely proud of what his team has achieved tonight.
"What a night for Middlesbrough and their fans, he (Wilder) was up for it, the players were up for it, it's a shame the Tottenham players weren't up for it. Typical Tottenham, Middlesbrough thoroughly deserved to be in the quarter-finals."
