Norwich City goalkeeper Tim Krul admits he sought to rattle Tottenham youngster Troy Parrott during last night's FA Cup shootout.

Krul saved penalties from Parrott and Gedson Fernandes as Wednesday's fifth round tie at White Hart Lane was settled in a shoot-out after a 1-1 draw. Erik Lamela also missed as Spurs lost the psychological battle against the Canaries keeper.

"I look at the player," said Krul. "Who is comfortable? Who is confident? With the young lad Parrott, I played a little bit with his head as well.

"I just said: 'I haven't seen many penalties from you on my homework' and he was looking at me.

"Actually, I hadn't seen any of his penalties. This is when you have to forget everything and go back to what you've learned and from your experience.

"Just wait on the line and react to the shot and that's what I did for that one. It's pressure for the player."
