Tottenham booked their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 2-0 replay victory at Leicester City. Spurs will face Colchester United away in the next round thanks to goals from Heung-Min Son and Nacer Chadli.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side dominated large periods of the game, taking the lead through a thumping Son finish five minutes before the break.
Son’s wonderful pass set up Chadli to seal the win midway through the second half.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the performance and result.
Michel Vorm is regularly dodgier than month old milk, but he's put in a real shift tonight, best performance for some time. Deserves credit.

A reminder that our defensive midfielder is probably a better centre back than your team's centre back

So pleased to be through, if only to see Wimmer play again. Fine prospect

Son Heung-Min gets MOTM & rightly so. Really excited about this lad. Movement & awareness are superb, as is his striking technique. #COYS

Enjoyed that. Son was excellent. Wimmer impressed again. The gamble paid off. Hopefully Son starts on Saturday

Really good team performance nice & solid. Son, Carroll and Wimmer stand out players and Vorm did well, The domestic double is still on! 🙂

A real coming of age performance tonight from the stand-in skipper Kyle Walker, another full-back who's improved his game under Poch.

Wimmer had another quietly really solid game.

#thfc Plenty of promise in the new pairings of Wimmer & Dier, and Bentaleb & Carroll. Lack of 2nd striker the only big issue in squad.

Shout out to Kevin Wimmer – played alongside his third centre-back partner this season, yet has been unfazed once again.

Son was man of the match. Seems to be settling into English football slowly slowly. Phenomenal goal and was absolutely everywhere #COYS

Special mentions tonight to Heung Min son @nabilbentaleb42 I thought @ChrisEriksen8 excellent. @kevinwimmer27 also very good with @ericdier
— Graham Roberts (@GrahamRoberts4) January 20, 2016
Comfortable win Son excellent, Wimmer assured & solid & good for Bentaleb & Chadders to get some minutes. ??
— Kenny Palmer (@KennyPalmer) January 20, 2016
I think Vorm had a good match. After his mistake last year, he looked very confident and assured.
