Thomas Frank’s rotated side, with seven changes from the Brighton draw, showed depth and control, advancing to the fourth round.
Kinsky 7 – Made a strong save in the first half; however, he was rarely troubled despite Doncaster’s increased attacking intent after the break. Showed quality by turning a Bailey volley onto the post.
Spence 6 – Unremarkable performance, in what was frequently a very scrappy game.
Palhinha 8 – What a truly inspirational goal, but elsewhere his 90% passing accuracy and calm head were a delight. ‘Can we play you every week?”
Porro 6 I see fans cooing over Pedro, but he lost possession 15 times, was booked for a shocking simulation and barely scraped together a 75% passing accuracy.
Danso 7 – Lost possession far too frequently, but otherwise provided stability, and his long throws are a menace against any side.
Gray 8 – Who knew he was actually a midfielder? A really accomplished and frequently accomplished performance.
Bentancur 7 – In a word, busy.
Xavi 7 – Another classy performance from a player who can become a household name at Tottenham.
Oderbert 5 – Another ‘so what?’ showing and a prime example of how nobody misses Daniel Levy, now he’s gone.
Tel 3 – Harsh? Have a look at who we were playing, and specifically, the Sofascore ratings—one of the worst footballers I’ve ever seen.
