SHOCKING: The strange ivan perisic stats that show what a mess tottenham s attack was at sheffield | Mind Blowing Facts

A delve into the stats surrounding Ivan Perisic's performance during Tottenham's FA Cup exit at Sheffield United on Wednesday highlight some of the problems the team faced.

The main team stats after the game will show that Spurs had 17 shots during the fifth round encounter at Bramall Lane with only four on target. The truth is that Blades goalkeeper Wes Foderingham was never really tested by a three-pronged attack that contained Richarlison, Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura.

So Brazil's main striker at the recent World Cup, last year's Premier League Golden Boot winner and a man who scored a hat-trick in a Champions League semi-final did not have enough about them to threaten the goal of a lower league Sheffield United side that needed to make eight changes due to an illness that spread through their camp.
