Tottenham news: 'Typical' Spurs slammed after FA Cup exit as Arsenal loanee sends message

Tottenham Hotspur have been slammed by Alan Shearer following their embarrassing FA Cup exit on Tuesday night.

Antonio Conte's side were dramatically knocked out of the competition as they lost 1-0 to Championship side Middlesbrough.

Josh Coburn's 107th-minute strike settled the tie in extra-time to claim their second giant-killing of the season after knocking Manchester United out in the previous round.

But pundit Alan Shearer was left less than impressed with Spurs' performance on the night.

It comes after Arsenal loanee Folarin Balogun sent a message to Spurs after helping Middlesbrough through.

And former boss Mauricio Pochettino's career has been revisited as the Argentine celebrates his 50th birthday.

Here are the latest Tottenham Hotspur headlines.

And after their FA Cup defeat, Shearer has laid into Conte's side.

Balogun sends message

Middlesbrough loanee Folarin Balogun has shared a rather cheeky message following the club's 1-0 FA Cup win over Tottenham Hotspur.

Balogun joined the side on loan from bitter rivals Arsenal in January – and the striker clearly enjoyed getting one over on Antonio Conte's side.

The forward took to social media following the game to share his thoughts on the giant-killing as he celebrated a very successful evening for his team.
