Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of Apoel Nicosia in match day six of the Champions League group stages. Spurs may have already sealed their place in the latter stages of the competition but have endured a tough run domestically and Mauricio Pochettino's out of form side could do with a morale-boosting victory.

Real Madrid have taken the lead against Dortmund - it is now 3-2 at the Bernabeu. As it stands: Tottenham - 16, Real Madrid - 13, Dortmund - 2, Apoel 2.
85'
The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League takes place on Monday - and as winners of Group H, Spurs should be handed an easier draw.

It appears Alli is finally going to be substituted. The 21-year-old hasn't been great, to be honest, but he hasn't looked 100 per cent fit.

GOAL! Tottenham 3-0 Apoel.
Curse of the commentator as Spurs grab another! Nkoudou bursts into the penalty area and hammers a shot at goal. It takes a deflection off the captain Morais and ends up in the back of the net to complete a productive night's work for Pochettino's fringe players.

Spurs are keeping possession very comfortably in midfield and defence at the moment. They are showing no ambition to grab a third.

Apoel make another change: Igor De Camargo replaces Stathis Aloneftis.

Next up for Spurs is a home match with Stoke on Saturday as Pochettino's side attempt to get their Premier League campaign back on track. They have won only once in their last six games domestically.
73'
Llorente has been Spurs' best player this evening, but he is hobbling a little now. The Spaniard may be replaced sooner rather than later.
70'
There is little happening at Wembley as we enter the final 20 minutes. The large number of visiting supporters have been silenced by their side's inept performance, while Spurs look rather bored.
68'
Rose is replaced by Kyle Walker-Peters as Pochettino makes his second change of the evening.

And now Rose goes into the book for a shove on Sallai after a coming together. The Apoel player is also shown a yellow card for his part in the embarrassing episode.

YELLOW!
Aurier is the first player this evening to receive a booking for a nasty high challenge on Aloneftis. The replay shows he is perhaps fortunate not be shown a straight red.

SAVE!
Nkoudou is released by Alli's path on the left side of the Apoel box. His first touch sets him up for a shot, but Perez gets down low to make the stop.
