Spurs advance to the FA Cup fourth round courtesy of Pedro Porro's spectacular goal

Guglielmo Vicario 7/10

TOTTENHAM PLAYER RATINGS: Played a great ball forward for Johnson’s chance and palmed away Odobert’s shot. Took over when Emerson and Davies had a moment of indecision. Reuters

Pedro Porro 8/10

Did well to deal with Odobert in a potentially awkward scenario and delivered some great crosses for Johnson, but his set-piece deliveries were underwhelming and he completely stopped when Amdouni hadShow more

Emerson Royal 8/10

Looked composed on the ball and was usually just as comfortable in his defensive work, coming across well to halt Odobert. Did well to stop Larsen when there was the chance for a break. Getty Images

Ben Davies 8/10

Had a moment of indecision that required Vicario to rush out and clear, but he largely looked comfortable outside of that and made brilliant interventions to stop balls through from Amdouni and RedmonShow more

Destiny Udogie 7/10

Had the better of Zaroury going both ways in the early stages and showed his intent by blocking O’Shea’s attempted pass in the opposition box. Put in a good cross for Johnson. AP

Oliver Skipp 7/10

Played a great pass through to release Richarlison and was unlucky not to get anything when he dispossessed Ramsey on the edge of Burnley’s cross. PA

Rodrigo Bentancur 7/10

Captaining Spurs for the first time, he made a lovely nutmeg to start a move forward and a nice pass through for Richarlison. Sent a shot harmlessly off-target. PA

Giovani Lo Celso 6/10

Made a great tackle to help earn Richarlison a chance but couldn’t quite find the quality in the final third, notably hooking one shot harmlessly over the crossbar. Getty Images

Dejan Kulusevski 6/10

Often looked like he could trouble Taylor but didn’t quite get the better of him in the first half. Cut inside O’Shea in the second period before curling his shot wide. AFP

Richarlison 5/10

Dragged his shot past the post after his first touch took him wide, then hit a tame shot after going wide again and was very quiet after that. Made a complete mess of his chance in the second half. GeShow more

Brennan Johnson 6/10

Provided some lovely touches and often looked a threat in the first half, cutting in well before hitting a couple of shots that were well dealt with. Scuffed an unconvincing volley comfortably wide anShow more

Bryan Gil 6/10

SUBS: (Lo Celso, 58’) Intercepted Muric’s pass and laid it off to Sessegnon for his chance and looked relatively bright. Getty Images

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg N/A

(Skipp, 77’) Played a great pass to Kulusevski to get Spurs moving forward shortly before the goal. He did get away with a poor pass in the middle. Getty Images

Ryan Sessegnon N/A

(Johnson, 83’) Made his return from injury but he looked a bit rusty and couldn’t mark it with a goal as he sent a wasteful shot wide. AP

Jamie Donley N/A

(Bentancur, 83’) Got more first-team minutes and showed himself to be a willing runner. AP

Dane Scarlett N/A

(Richarlison, 84’) Made his first appearance since returning from his loan to Ipswich Town and saw his attempt deflected wide by Hannes Delcroix. AP

Arijanet Muric 6/10

BURNLEY PLAYER RATINGS: Looked confident with his hands, but his distribution was poor at times as he put Ramsey under pressure with one pass then played another poor pass that was intercepted by Gil.Show more

Vitinho 7/10

Got away with an unconvincing clearance in his own box, but persisted to help get the better of Udogie and Johnson, putting in a great tackle on the latter with the last touch of the first half. DelivShow more

Dara O’Shea 8/10

Got across brilliantly on a few occasions to halt Johnson. Did get away with having his pass intercepted in his own box but then made a superb recovery tackle to stop Udogie from getting a cross into Show more

Hannes Delcroix 8/10

Showed great awareness in various situations, such as when he took control after Ramsey had been dispossessed. Was also impressive in dealing with Richarlison, forcing the Brazilian wide for his tame Show more

Charlie Taylor 7/10

Showed good awareness to turn the ball behind after Johnson’s shot was saved and just about kept the ball to avoid danger when he was put under pressure by Kulusevski. Battled for as long as he could Show more

Anass Zaroury 5/10

The winger often looked weak and indecisive in the first half, with one poor pass putting O’Shea in an awkward situation. However, he should have had an assist after his superb flick found Amdouni andShow more

Aaron Ramsey 7/10

Put in a lot of good defensive work for his team, with one tackle on Udogie stopping a break forward. Was put in an awkward position by Muric’s pass. AFP

Josh Cullen 7/10

Booked for a challenge on Lo Celso but continued to put in an impressive performance, with another tackle to stop the Argentine on the edge of his box being a standout moment. Fired an ambitious shot Show more

Wilson Odobert 7/10

Put in a lot of good defensive work to help Taylor and had some bright moments going forward, seeing a decent shot palmed away. Reuters

Lyle Foster 5/10

Didn’t quite look himself, completely missing the ball when it was crossed into him and making a poor attempt at a lay-off for Zaroury. AFP

Zeki Amdouni 4/10

Had some nice moments but his attempt at scoring after being slipped through by Zaroury was poor. He then cheaply conceded possession to Porro when the Spaniard scored the game’s only goal and sent hiShow more

Jacob Bruun Larsen 5/10

SUBS: (Foster, 45') Worked hard and almost dispossessed Emerson but never really sparked into life, being halted when there was the chance to break. Reuters

Josh Brownhill 6/10

(Odobert, 58’) Put in a disciplined defensive performance but slid his shot horribly wide. Getty Images

Ameen Al-Dakhil 6/10

(Taylor, 67’) Lost possession from a few of his throw-ins but showed good awareness in his defending. Made some positive forays forward. PA

Nathan Redmond 5/10

(Zaroury, 67’) Had some nice touches but never looked like making anything happen, overhitting his pass to Bruun Larsen when there was a chance to break forward. Getty Images

Mike Tresor 6/10

(Ramsey, 67’) Keen to get on the ball but saw his attempt blocked by Porro and overhit a pass to Al-Dakhil. Booked for a late challenge on Porro. AFP

Pedro Porro scored his first goal of the season to put Tottenham Hotspur through to the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 1-0 victory over Burnley on Friday.

Eight-time FA Cup winners Spurs and Burnley looked destined for a replay before Porro broke the deadlock in the 78th minute of a drab game when he intercepted goalkeeper Arijanet Muric's throw, firing a rocket from long range into the top far corner.

The victory was a relief for Ange Postecoglou's team, who were missing several key players to injury and international duty, including South Korea captain Son Heung-min at the Asian Cup, and Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma, who are both at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Burnley's best chance came in the first half when Zeki Amdouni received a clever flick just outside the six-yard box but took a poor first touch and launched the ball over the bar. They rarely threatened as Spurs found a way to grind out the win.

"We were a little bit wasteful in the final third. The way the game was going we needed something special from someone and Pedro delivered. He's been outstanding all year," Postecoglou said.

"Cup games are a unique beast and we're through to the next round so that's the main thing."
