Spurs goalkeeper Michel Vorm admits that he is "gutted" to have cost his side a place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with his late error in the defeat to Leicester.

Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Michel Vorm has admitted that he is "gutted" after making an error that cost his side their place in the FA Cup.

Spurs were beaten 2-1 at home by Leicester City on Saturday, with the visitors scoring the decisive goal deep in added time.

The game looked to be heading for a replay, but Jeffrey Schlupp's late strike squirmed through Vorm and into the net to send the Foxes through.

"If that happens earlier in the game, maybe you can turn it around, but at the end makes it even worse," Vorm told Spurs TV. "When the ball goes in, it is horrible, but that is football.

"I am gutted now, but you have to go on because there is another big game ahead on Wednesday, and we have to focus on that as quickly as possible."

Tottenham are back in action on Wednesday when they will look to defend a 1-0 first-leg lead away to Sheffield United in the Capital One Cup semi-finals.
