Full-time: Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Chelsea

Lloris looks like he might greet, and understandably so. The winner was difficult to save, being so close to his feet, but he ought to have found a way.

Sissoko, the geleimpter, jumps with Alonso and imparts elbow to Roger Ramjet-jaw. The ref sees nothing untoward.

My days, this is going to sting Spurs. On the touchline, Pochettino is still muttering to himself.

Ah, there he is! The lesser-talented Janssen replaces Trippier.

There shall be four added minutes.

Kane is booked - for lair, I presume.

Pochettino is absolutely steaming, in the worst possible sense of the word.

GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Chelsea (Alonso) Oh I say! Batshuayi breaks through the middle but Dembele flies into a tackle which pokes back to Lloris. Wanyama is sleeping when the ball is hurled at him though, Luiz wins it, and sets Chelsea away down the left. Alonso thinks about a cross, but with not much on lashes it goalwards instead and it clips Lloris' heel and goes in! The celebratory bundle is a belter.

Eriksen, who's had a good second half, picks up possession at inside-right and runs at Rudiger, who wins the ball; except Bakayoko pulls him from behind, and that's a free-kick, close to the position from which Alonso scored. Chelsea decide against a wall, and for a second it looks as though Alderweireld might get a chance to head for goal, but in the event, Azpilicueta smuggles wide for a corner. it comes to nowt, but Azplicueta is booked for mouth in the meantime.

Chelsea scrounging a winner would be the height of "Tottenham Hotspur Football Club".

GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Chelsea (Batshuayi o.g.) Eriksen curls in another peach and Batshuayi, who hasn't dropped quickly enough, steers a fine header past Courtois at the near post! He looks all sad, so let's not make too much sport of his misfortune.

Luiz puts a hand on Alli's shoulder jus outside the box, close to its left corner. That was unnecessary....

Incidentally, Sissoko has not yet scored for Spurs. But the game's about entertainment, not goals and, wittingly or otherwise, he's given us plenty of that.

Oh, titter!

A couple of good minutes for Spurs is enough to convince Conte to act. Off go Willian and Morata; on come Pedro and Batshuayi.

Alli finagles space and sets Kane for a shot ... Martin Tyler is excited ... but with the ball having travelled 0.00045cm, Christensen hurls himself into a superb block.

Eriksen makes space at inside-right, but his cross is headed behind. Luiz nods the corner clearish.

I wonder if Conte will tell Pedro to sit down again. Willian is excellent on the counter and Spurs are leaving gaps now.
