Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of Tottenham against Maribor from White Hart Lane as the Europa League group stage continues.

There goes the final whistle! All over! A 3-1 win for Spurs.

We are into four minutes of time added on...

Lennon is going to depart the scene. He is replaced by Falque for Tottenham.

A few of the home fans being their march to the exit doors. Job is done and dusted for AVB and his boys tonight.

Dodlek replaces Mertelj for Maribor, who are not yet out of the group despite this defeat tonight.

USA national coach Jurgen Klinnsman left his vantage point in the stands seconds before Dempsey tried his luck there.

Some nice play by Dempsey to turn and fire an effort at goal, but no real power as Handanovic makes a comfortable stop.

Bale departs to a standing ovation as Ryan Mason takes over for the last few minutes.

Bale on another stunning run down a flank, but Rajcevic comes across to make a timely tackle.

Dempsey arrives as Defoe departs the scene for Spurs.

That should have been four there for the home side. And wouldn't really flatter Spurs on this second-half performance.

Lennon was looking to play in Adebayor when he should have gone for goal. A relieved Handanovic happy to snatch the loose ball.

Arghus forced to nip in front of Defoe to prevent a fourth goal from finding the net. Another lovely cross by Bale out on the home side's left flank.

Lloris slides out of his goal to clear the ball long. The Frenchman has not had the best game tonight. Will be relieved that Defoe has come up with the goods at the other end.

That should ease the tension. A 3-1 lead now. Job done almost then for Spurs this evening.

GOAL! Defoe completes the hat-trick for Spurs as he slides the ball home from Bale's ball across the face of goal. Brilliant finish. Huddlestone picked out Bale quite superbly.

Tavares departs the scene for Maribor to be replaced by Komacez.

Caroll collects a booking for a late challenge on Mejac.

Adebayor forces Handanovic to make a fine stop Maribor continue to fight the good fight.

Spurs living on the edge there. Don't really want to be putting their fans through moments like that.
