This year’s FA Cup Semi-Final matchup will see two teams, currently placed at the top of the Premier League, lock horns with each other. The current league leaders Chelsea will play the second placed Tottenham Hotspur, who are literally within touching distance of the Blues, for a place in the finals of the prestigious FA Cup.
Keeping their Premier League rivalry in mind, the challenge will be in front of both teams’ players to rise to the occasion and play their best game. Both the clubs don’t have any shortage of talent when it comes to line-ups, but a few special players are always there who can take it a notch higher and make the game worth watching. Three such players from the Tottenham side whose presence will be absolutely crucial are Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Heung-Min Son.
Harry Kane-
One of the best strikers currently in English as well as world football, Harry Kane, will be playing an absolutely crucial part in the FA cup encounter for Tottenham against Chelsea. The mercurial striker is very dangerous in the attacking third, leading his team’s charge to score goals. In the FA cup matchup against Chelsea, the Tottenham captain will be a player to watch out for.
Having scored 20 goals in 23 appearances for his club Tottenham, Harry Kane has become the second leading goal scorer behind Romelu Lukaku this season. With absolute precision in shot making and equally strong headed attempts, Kane is a force to reckon with against any team any given day.
Dele Alli-
Dele Alli, is one of the best young talents that the English side has trusted in, and he returned their faith with absolutely brilliant performances on the pitch. Having scored 16 goals so far this season in 29 appearances for Tottenham, he will be a player that Chelsea will need to watch out for in their forthcoming FA Cup encounter.
With particularly strong shot-making and headers, this 21 years old player is a force to deal with in the attacking third. His dribbling and pinpoint passing abilities can also come very handy for Tottenham.
Heung-Min Son-
The South Korean player who was brought in from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 by Tottenham, has proved to be one of the mercurial attackers in the Premier League. Having scored 12 goals in 16 appearances for the Spurs this season, Heung-Min Son is one that the Blues have to keep an eye on.
