All
Highlights

90+3'

It ends Limassol 1-2 Tottenham, and Erik Lamela is the difference between the sides as Tottenham look to make the Europa League group stages for the fourth successive year. The second leg is at White Hart Lane next Thursday.

90+1'

The Limassol fans are still making a very good noise despite this Spurs' fightback.

90'

We are into three minutes of additional time.

89'

Miguel Carlitos tries an effort that is well saved by Lloris.

88'

Benteleb urges Lamela to show for the ball, and there is some great interplay between the pair and Davies.

87'

Fegrouch, falling backwards, just manages to block an effort from Lamela.

86'

Kane sets up Chadli, who pulls the ball back unselfishly to Lamela but his sidefoot shot is just wide.

85'

Davies concedes a foul, and Bebe floats over the free-kick from the right.

84'

Just to say though, that Lamela has been excellent since coming on. He has also looked good in pre-season in America, so don't write off the Argentine winger as a flop just yet!

83'

Apologies for the interruptions - we lost the feed from Cyprus, and off course that is when the two Tottenham goals went in.

80'

AEL final change as Miguel Carlitos comes on for Sardinero.

79'

GOAL: Limassol 1-2 Tottenham. Lamela again is the inspiration as he sets up Kane to net.

73'

GOAL: Limassol 1-1 Tottenham. And it is Soldado, who has been very poor tonight but does the business in front of goal.

73'

And another change for Limassol as Tagbajumi is on up front for Gikiewicz.

72'

Erik Lamela is coming on for the disappointing Townsend.

71'

Chadli's cross is headed down by Soldado to Kane, but the youngster's low shot is touched onto underside of bar by Fegrouch and Limassol clear.

67'

Eleftheriou on for Diego Barcelos for the home side.

66'

Dembele is on for Holtby.

63'

We have just lost our feed from Larnaca. Before it went, Townsend was again easily dispossessed when running at the Limassol defence.

58'

Nacer Chadli replaces the unfit and off-form Paulinho.
