Spurs may have endured another trophyless season, but that hasn't stopped their players from absolutely owning the World Cup.

As many as 9 players from Tottenham belong to the 4 semi-finalist sides, with a majority of them belonging to England and Belgium.

England's captain and Tottenham's beloved heart-throb Harry Kane is joined by Danny Rose, Eric Dier, Kieran Trippier and Dele Alli. Kane is the tournament's leading goalscorer with 6 goals, while Rose and Dier have struggled to seal a permanent spot in the side. Alli has scored 1 goal, while Trippier has notched 1 assist.

The Belgian side features 3 Spurs players, namely Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen and Mousa Dembélé. The first two have been the heart of the Red Devils' defence while Dembele has impressed at every given opportunity.

Last, but not the least, Tottenham Hotspur and France captain Hugo Lloris has been very instrumental in goal, making a fine save against Uruguay that eventually saw them qualify for the semi-final.
