Tottenham booked their place in the Carabao Cup final after beating Brentford 2-0 in the semi-final.
Brentford were literally millimetres away from equalising against Tottenham in their Carabao Cup clash only for VAR to break their hearts and snatch the goal away.
The visitors had gone a goal down in the twelfth minute thanks to a Moussa Sissoko glancing harder after an inch-perfect cross by Sergio Reguilón.
