Tottenham Hotspur are into the semi-finals of the FA Cup after beating Swansea City 3-1 at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Spurs saw off lower league opposition in AFC Wimbledon, Newport County and Rochdale earlier in the competition, but were faced with a Premier League side in the quarter finals on Saturday.

Mauricio Pochettino’s men made light work of Swansea though, as Christian Eriksen waltzed forward unchallenged before firing Tottenham into the lead from outside the box.

Neat footwork and a calm finish from Erik Lamela put Tottenham 2-0 up before half time, and Eriksen added a third after the break to hand Spurs a 3-0 victory.

Tottenham are now into the last four of the FA Cup as they pursue a first trophy under Pochettino, and could face off against Manchester United, Southampton, or the winner of Leicester City versus Chelsea.

For now though, Spurs are celebrating their win, and players took to Twitter after the final whistle at the Liberty Stadium in order to send messages to fans.

Goalscorers Eriksen and Lamela looked ahead to the semi-finals after their superb afternoons, whilst recent signing Lucas Moura congratulated his team-mates on the win.
