Tottenham moved within touching distance of defending their League Cup title at Wembley after super-substitute Jamie O'Hara inspired a 4-1 win over Burnley in yesterday's semis first leg.
When Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp sent on O'Hara at half-time, Spurs were trailing to Martin Paterson's early goal.
But O'Hara's arrival sparked a remarkable transformation at White Hart Lane. The England U-21 midfielder's free-kick set up the equaliser for Michael Dawson and he scored Spurs' second before Roman Pavlyuchenko made it three for the EPL club.
O'Hara wasn't finished there and layed on the fourth goal with another free-kick that Michael Duff headed into his own net.
