Tottenham's captain Son Heung-min covered up for a mistake by his fellow goalkeeper, Fraser.

Asked about Foster's mistake in an interview with CBS Sports on the 20th, Son Heung-min said, `I don't think it's Foster's mistake. He saved us too many times this season" and "He continued his good defense until he lost a point in this game as well." Then "He is an experienced player and there is no doubt. We will move forward together."

In addition, Tottenham's main goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, who is recovering from surgery for a broken ankle, was also involved in the game. Vicario approached Foster and encouraged him for his mistake on the day.

Tottenham beat Manchester United 4-3 in the quarterfinals of the English Football League (EFL) Cup in the 2024-2025 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England.

Dominic Solanke's multi-goal, Klusevskiy goal, and Son Heung-min's fantastic corner kick goal won the game by one point.

Frazier had the worst play of the day.

In the 18th minute of the second half, Manchester United made a pass miss in the process of pressuring strongly, providing an excuse for Zirkji to lose a point.

In the 25th minute of the second half, he also kicked Ahmad while trying to deal with the ball in a hurry under Ahmad's strong pressure, and the ball hit by Ahmad's leg went into the goal.

Since then, Manchester United, which saved the atmosphere, has launched a wave of attacks, and Tottenham has been in a crisis.

In the 37th minute of the second half, Foster even showed an uneasy appearance of blocking Ahmad's powerful mid-range shot from the front of the box with his feet, not his hands.

Fortunately, it was captain Son Heung-min who solved the crisis.

In the 43rd minute of the second half, he crossed with a strong rotation in the corner, and the ball was sucked into the goal.

Manchester United seemed to be in crisis again as Evans followed a header goal in a corner kick in the fifth minute of the second half, but time was on Tottenham's side.

England Football London gave Foster a low rating of two points after the game. "He was a poster of his recent good performance, but he scored three goals on the day. He changed the momentum of the game by making a series of mistakes in one-sidedly leading games. "
