Leicester fan brutally trolls Tottenham by holding up picture of empty trophy cabinet to Spurs end during 4-1 battering

A Leicester fan mocked Tottenham’s lack of silverware by holding up a picture of an empty trophy cabinet during his side’s emphatic 4-1 win.

Brendan Rodgers’ side thumped Spurs at the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Antonio Conte’s men suffered a huge blow in their pursuit of the top four.

Tottenham remain fifth in the Premier League table and are still in both the FA Cup and Champions League.

But the wait for a major trophy is set to reach 15 years later this month – their last triumph coming in the 2008 Carabao Cup.

Since then, Leicester have won the Premier League and FA Cup.

And one home supporter revelled in his team’s success by holding aloft an image of an empty trophy cabinet to the travelling supporters, referencing Tottenham’s lack of silverware in recent years.

Conte did secure Champions League qualification for Tottenham last season after a superb end to the campaign.

But they have struggled to build on that as local rivals Arsenal fly high at the top of the table.

However, Spurs fans will still have aspirations of silverware this season in the form of either the FA Cup or Champions League.

The Lilywhites travel to Championship side Sheffield United in the fifth round of the FA Cup on March 1.

But before that they travel to Conte’s home country to take on AC Milan in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday.

They will then welcome the Serie A champions to London for the return leg on March 8.

Spurs’ last major final came in 2021 when they lost 1-0 to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup.

Meanwhile, Leicester sit 13th in the Premier League table following their win over Tottenham.

And they are now just five points adrift of the top half as they look to recover from a poor first half of the campaign.
