After Bale’s first goal, Davis and Kane scored consecutive goals to win. Son Heung-min came out as a substitute in the second half, but failed to score the attack points.
The local team Stoke went out 4-3-3. Goalkeeper Ronagan, Collins Sauta, Bath’s three defenders, Smith, Curjons, Thompson and Fox made up the midfield. Oakley Booth, Brown and Macklin were up front. The visiting team Tottenham faced 4-2-3-1. Joris’ goalkeeper, Davis, Dyer, Sánchez, Doherty’s four backs, Winks and Hoivier arrived on the third row, and Moura, Bale, Ali and Kane on the front row all aimed to score.
Tottenham struggled with heavy pressure from Stoke from the start of the first half. Stoke’s close defense strategy couldn’t stand a chance. However, the first goal was scored in the 21st minute. Bale, located inside the box, only slightly changed the direction of Winks’ early crossing and scored.
In the 35th minute of the first half, Ali, who received a pass from Kane, fell and tried a left-footed shot, but was blocked by goalkeeper Ronagan. In the 42nd minute of the first half, Ali grabbed the spilled ball and hit it with a powerful shot from long range, but once again goalkeeper Ronagan saved. The first part ended 1-0 as it was.
At the beginning of the second half, Son Heung-min was introduced instead of the veil. The attack was strong. However, after 7 minutes into the second half, Stoke tied with a counterattack. Thomson balanced the game after Brown cut through the right flank and finished off the center.
Coach Mourinho reinforced the attack with Lamela and Sisoko. Tottenham went ahead another goal in the 25th minute. Davis cut the goal with a powerful shot from long range. In the 30th minute, Son Heung-min’s goal was shot, but an offside decision came. Up front, Kane took the ball from the opponent and connected it to Son Heung-min, who infiltrated, and finished it neatly, but the assistant referee raised the flag. There was a defender on the other side, so at first glance it seemed to be in position from outside, but sadly it was not registered as a goal. In the Carabao Cup, the VAR only applies to the home stadium of the Premier League club.
