FULL TIME
High fives all round because Spurs know they've secured a spot in next season's Europa League.
Big hugs on the sidelines between Mourinho and his coaching staff - the Portuguese looks a very happy man. They've pulled off a series of strong results since lockdown and sixth place is secure.
Palace have stopped short of seven defeats on the spin too so we're all smiles at Selhurst Park.
That's the season over for the two London clubs.
Sanchez comes on for Spurs.
See it out lads.

L. Moura
CHANCE!
Dann gets in between Alli and Alderweireld at the far post and has a free header!
But he puts it a yard wide!
Should. Have. Scored.
Dier picks up a booking and Palace have a free-kick in a great position.
Dann is the target. Can Palace steal it?
Yellow card
E. Dier
Slow finish to this one.
Both sides looking a bit tired and neither has real reason to step it up a gear in the dying minutes. Spurs are going sixth, Palace will finish the season in 14th.
THREE MINUTES ADDED ON
Mourinho is on the touchline, he knows this isn't job done yet and Palace have absolutely nothing to lose by going for this.
Palace still giving this a go, but Spurs look pretty comfortable seeing this one out.
As things stand, they'll be playing European football next season.
Palace goalscorer Sclupp makes way for Milivojevic.

M. Sissoko
Kouyate lunges in on a challenge and is lucky that he didn't make harsher contact there, just a booking for him.
Moments later, Palace create an opening but Ayew lashes at the side netting when he probably should've picked out a teammate in the box.
Yellow card
C. Kouyaté
Aurier picks out Kane who megs Mitchell and is just a yard or two off a brace.
He's had very little to do with the game since he scored.
McArthur off, dutch international Riedewald on!

Palace have edged this in the second half. Can they find a winner? Really is anyone's game this and Spurs have done very little to make a case for three points.
DRINKS BREAK
Palace pushing for the winner and Ayew looks like an absolute world beater at times. Zaha shouts for a penalty as Bergwijn clatters him in the box but it looks as though Zaha stuck his leg in the mix first.
Ayew does brilliantly to win a free-kick with some solid hold-up play, and Alderweireld even takes a booking for his troubles.
Yellow card
T. Alderweireld
Bergwijn on!

CHANCE!
Spurs counter and Davies' cross is almost guided in on the volley by Moura. Should've hit the target.
