#5 Hit - David Luiz

It was really tough to pick this spot as most of the players were not at their best. David Luiz, however, looked threatening with his ball playing ability and did not have much defensively as Spurs barely looked threatening with Fernando Llorente.

Apart from that goal, the Spaniard did not have a great game and struggled to keep hold off the ball.

He made some interceptions really well and dealt with the Spanish striker really well apart from that goal.

His long-range passes made Spurs defense spread and created more space in the middle for the attackers to bounce in.

After a poor performance against Arsenal in the weekend, the Brazilian will be delighted about this outing helping his team win at the end.

When he had to keep his nerve in the penalty shootout, he did that and scored the winning penalty for the Blues.
