MAN OF THE MATCH: Who else but Harry Kane? The striker not only helped himself to a hat trick but also inspired a new song from the White Hart Lane faithful after a howler in a cameo between the sticks. Erik Lamela also deserves praise for a brilliant display and a goal that will last long in the memories of Spurs fans.
21:55
FULL TIME: TOTTENHAM 5-1 ASTERAS TRIPOLIS. Harry Kane is the master ceremonies at White Hart Lane tonight after a sublime hat-trick that is almost ecplipsed by a world class goal from Erik Lamela. Hugo Lloris saw red late on and the England Under-21's efforts were confounded by a clanger as he dropped Jerónimo Barrales resulting free-kick in his own net in an entertaining game at White Hart Lane.

The home support may not have turned up in full force tonight but they have sung until the end as they have seen encouraging signs here in the cold night air of North London. But Spurs still look a little suspect at the back as they have been caught napping on more than one occasion.

GOAL! It's that man again! Erik Lamela has scored another worldie. The Argentine's right footed shot in the area is blocked but he has a go again on his left foot from a tight angle and lashes it low past Kosicky at the near post!
63'
Adebayor's work rate has been exemplary tonight but he has stayed offside after a good pass to feet from Capoue. The Togo striker has scored just one goal all season so far.
61'
CLOSE! Adebayor holdsit up for his strike partner Kane who strikes from the edge of the box. Kosicky parries it out to Lamela but the winger is offside.

This game is starting to look a little stretched at the moment as Asteras continue to find a glimmer of hope in this game.
56'
HANDBALL? Massa looks to pick his man out in the area and it clatters off Fazio's chest. There were muted calls for a penalty there but the referee was having none of it.

Tripolis break again and it takes a brilliant well timed tackle from Vertonghen to thwart Rolle and concede a corner.

Wow! Sankaré scuffs his clearance past his own keeper and out for a corner. That could have gone anywhere!
