Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou will welcome the lack of VAR for Sunday’s FA Cup third-round tie at Tamworth but will stop speaking about technology. Postecoglou witnessed history in English football on Wednesday when – for the first time – referee Stuart Attwell explained a VAR decision to fans inside the stadium during a 1-0 semi-final first-leg win over Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.

Ange Postecoglou is a huge fan of the FA Cup and its potential for shocks but will hope his Tottenham Hotspur side can avoid becoming the fall guys in what would be the biggest story of the third round when they travel to fifth-tier Tamworth on Sunday.

Rodrigo Bentancur is “fine” after suffering a concussion against Liverpool but will be sidelined for the next two weeks due to medical protocols, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has confirmed.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou says that midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur “looks like” he sustained a concussion during the first leg of Spurs’ Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool on Wednesday.
