SUB: Sergio Reguilon (71') - N/A. The Spaniard's introduction only added to the gulf in quality between the two teams. Reuters

MARINE RATINGS: Bayleigh Passant 6 - A few decent saves early on but could do little about any of the Spurs goals. AFP

Josh Solomon-Davies - 4. Found himself mostly camped in his own half for 90 minutes. Reuters

David Raven 5. Once on the books of Liverpool, the centre-back kept his teammates spirits up with some vital interventions. Reuters

Anthony Miley - 5. One of three starting Marine centre-backs who played out of their skin to give a decent account of themselves against Premier League opposition. AFP

Adam Hughes - 5. Held firm with the rest of the Marine defence for 20 minutes but struggled thereafter. Replaced at half time. AFP

James Joyce - 6. His eyes widened as he sized up a rare shot at goal but his effort was well blocked by Rodon. Later put in a superb tackle of his own on Moura as the Brazilian was about to pull the trigger. Reuters

Josh Hmami - 6. Tried his best to disrupt Tottenham's rhythm and will be kicking himself for a tame effort on a rare foray into enemy territory. Reuters

Jay Devine - 4. Worked tirelessly to try and stop his defenders from being overwhelmed. Reuters

James Barrigan - 4. Tried to outmuscle the younger Spurs players with some tough tackling. Reuters

Neil Kengni - 5. Denied a place in FA Cup folklore by the width of a crossbar. Reuters

Niall Cummins - 3. A throwback to an age when English clubs prided themselves on big target men. Unfortunately his mobility was not up to scratch. Reuters

SUBS: Michael Howard (45') - 5. Can be happy he was part of a defence that kept Spurs down to one goal in the second half. Reuters

Alex Doyle (67'), Kenny Strickland (75'), Ryan Wignall (75'), Danny Shaw (81') - All can tell their grandkids they once faced eight-time FA Cup winners Tottenham. Reuters

TOTTENHAM RATINGS: Joe Hart - 6. Nearly left with egg on his face after pulling his hand away from Kengni's dipping shot that crashed against his bar. AFP

Matt Doherty - 7. Had nothing to do defensively so played as an auxiliary winger for most of the first half to help set up Vinicius for his second. AFP

Toby Alderweireld - 7. Never really troubled and was replaced at half time by Tanganga. AFP

Joe Rodon - 7. Spared his teammates' blushes with a stunning block to deny Joyce in the first half. Reuters

Ben Davies - 7. Defended well when he had to and looked to join in the Spurs attack. Reuters

Moussa Sissoko - 7. The French international's athleticism was too much for the Marine midfield. Withdrawn at half time with Spurs 4-0 up. Reuters

Harvey White - 7. Tidy on the ball and will be disappointed he didn't do better with a few sights at goal. Reuters

Gedson Fernandes - 6. The Portuguese midfielder's best performance in a remarkably underwhelming loan spell. Reuters

Dele Alli - 9. Touched the ball 82 times and had a hand in three of the goals before being replaced in the second half. Even joined in when the Spurs bench laughed at him after he tripped over his own laces. Reuters

Lucas Moura - 8. Scored a sublime free kick and lovely intricate play in the attacking third. Reuters

Carlos Vinicius - 9. Spurs required a flat-track bully to avoid any embarrassment and the Brazilian played the role to a tee, scoring a first-half hat-trick with the third a particularly impressive finish. Reuters

SUB: Japhet Tanganga (45') - 6. Largely a watching brief with Marine intent to keep the scoreline respectable. AFP

SUB: Alfie Devine (45') - 8. At 16 years and 162 days, Tottenham's youngest-ever player became their youngest-ever scorer with a well taken goal midway through the first half. AFP

SUB: Gareth Bale (65') - 5. From Madrid to Marine. The Welshman saw one dipping free-kick beaten away to safety. Reuters

SUB: Jack Clarke (65') - 6. Able to express himself with some sharp passing with the game already won after replacing Moura. Reuters

SUB: Sergio Reguilon (71') - N/A. The Spaniard's introduction only added to the gulf in quality between the two teams. Reuters
