Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga has impressed every time he has been picked by Mauricio Pochettino.
Gazzaniga was selected to start for Spurs, and he kept a clean-sheet as Pochettino’s men won 1-0 at Wembley.
Tottenham were forced to do a lot of defending in the contest, with Gazzaniga having to stay alert throughout.
And his display drew praise from Pochettino, who felt the Argentine stopper should have been given the Man of the Match award.
“I think he was man of the match,” Pochettino said. “We are lucky to have three top keepers, plus younger that have great quality as well.”
Sky selected Harry Kane as the best player on the pitch, after he scored Tottenham’s only goal in the match.
Kane slotted home from the penalty spot to give Spurs an advantage to take to Stamford Bridge.
Gazzaniga is now actually putting some pressure on Hugo Lloris for the number one shirt at Tottenham.
The rangy goalkeeper has impressed in every first-team appearance he has made for Spurs, and looks very reliable back-up.
