RED CARD! Mike Dean has been called over to the VAR monitor after an earlier challenge by Dasilva on Hojbjerg. It's a bad challenge, over the top of the ball and high up the shin, and Dean rightly red cards Dasilva. Hojbjerg has pulled down his sock and taken his shinpad out; even with that protection, his bare shin is a gruesome mess.

It's another change for Brentford, as Marcus Forss comes on for Mbuemo.
79'
Brentford are going for it and this game is frantic now. Mbuemo wins a header at the back post but can only send it out for a goal kick.
77'
OFF THE POST! Spurs are rampant here. Son gets the ball on the edge of the D and plays in N'Dombele on the left of the area. He skips past his man, but from a tight angle can only clip the ball off the outside of the near post and behind.
75'
CHANCE! It's the first action of the night for Kane, as he gets a clean look at goal after a chipped ball over the top but it's well saved by Raya.

A double change for Spurs, as Ben Davies and Harry Winks replace Reguilon and Moura.

GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 2 (Son 70) Brentford 0
That should be Spurs in the final! They win the ball in their own half and break quickly, with Kane find N'Dombele, who then slides a pass through the centre of Brentford's defence for Son into the area. Son takes a touch to lose the last man and commits Raya, before driving his shot high into the net.

Scratch that; Aurier is fine it seems, and running freely down the right.
66'
Aurier's gone down heavily here, it looks like he might need to come off.

DISALLOWED GOAL! Brentford whip in the corner, and Toney completely misses a free header from six yards out! Pinnock then heads it back across goal, where Lloris gets a fingertip on it and Toney looks to have redeemed himself by nodding the loose ball in, but it goes to VAR and Toney was just offside as the ball came back in. So close!
62'
A brief worry here for Spurs; Sorensen hurls in a long throw from the left, which flicks off Sanchez and Reguilon slices over his own bar.
60'
CHANCE! Sissoko wins the ball on the edge of the area on the right. He drives to the byline and crosses to the back post, where Son volleys a shot back across goal and just wide of the far post.
58'
Jensen works a free kick to Dalsgaard down the left side of the Spurs area. It's a clever one, with a disguise that catches out Spurs, but Dalsgaard's first touch is poor and his subsequent cross is blocked.
