Crystal Palace compounded a miserable week for Tottenham by knocking them out of the FA Cup with a 2-0 fourth-round victory at Selhurst Park
Connor Wickham (9) set Palace on their way with his first goal in 799 days, before Andros Townsend (34) haunted his former club by doubling the hosts' lead from the penalty spot after Kyle Walker-Peters' inexcusable handball
Spurs were architects of their own downfall; Mauricio Pochettino left Christian Eriksen out of the squad and they lacked creativity, while Kieran Trippier's woeful missed penalty (44) left them with a mountain to climb without Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Heung-Min Son
The victory sees Palace secure their place in Monday's fifth-round draw at the expense of Spurs, whose trophy hopes took another significant dent after Thursday's Carabao Cup exit at Chelsea
It took just 10 minutes for Spurs' positive start to unravel
 Jeff Schlupp drove into the area and drew a save from Paulo Gazzaniga
 The Argentine got a hand to the effort but could only tip it into the path of Wickham, who needed no invitation to score from close range on his first start in 792 days
Palace were gifted the chance to double their lead as Walker-Peters stuck out an arm to block a diagonal ball before it reached Wickham, and Townsend sent the penalty down the middle after Gazzaniga had committed to his dive
Gazzaniga prevented Townsend from adding a quickfire second on 36 minutes with an outstanding save as the Palace winger tried to apply the finishing touch to a flowing counter
Trippier's quick thinking to roll a free-kick to Georges-Kevin Nkoudou presented the Frenchman with a chance to halve Spurs' deficit, but Eagles 'keeper Julian Speroni thwarted two of his attempts on goal
Patrick van Aanholt was then penalised for a foul on Juan Foyth in the area but, three days on from Eric Dier's miss at Stamford Bridge, the curse of England's penalty takers struck again as Trippier blazed wide from 12 yards
Pochettino brought Erik Lamela on at the break but Spurs' efforts to get back into the tie failed to materialise, Speroni showing great reflexes to tip a deflected Fernando Llorente shot behind on 52 minutes
Trippier lashed a volley across the face of goal which narrowly evaded Llorente's outstretched leg on 66 minutes but that was as close as Spurs came as their miserable week took a further turn for the worse
The midweek Premier League schedule sees Palace travel to Southampton (7
45pm) and Spurs host Watford (8pm) on Wednesday
