Roy Keane slams 'pathetic' Tottenham for FA Cup exit to Middlesbrough, but 'wasn't surprised as whatever's in that club's DNA there's a weakness there'... as ex-midfielder also labels talisman Harry Kane 'as part of the problem'

Former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane has slammed Tottenham for 'Spursy' performance as they crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Middlesbrough.

Teenager Josh Coburn was the hero as Boro produced another Cup upset by knocking out Spurs with a 1-0 extra-time victory in the fifth round.

The Championship outfit knocked Keane's former club out on penalties at Old Trafford in the fourth round and followed it up in style to beat Spurs, with 19-year-old Coburn's 107th-minute strike settling the tie.
