Afternoon all, and welcome to Lokomotiv Plovdiv v Tottenham Hotspur!

Spurs have had a lot of the ball, but have created very little.

Spurs win a corner down the right and the ball bobbles about before falling to Doherty, usually a decent finisher, but he misses his kick then bundles wide, just before the flag goes up for offside.

Spurs win a free-kick 25 yards out and Dier invites himself to take it, sending a dipping, curling brute into the top corner. Not really, he passes into the wall and slopes off.

Doherty ploughs forward to no avail. I wonder if, when Reguilon arrives, Mourinho will move the 352 or 343, because the pair of them are more effective with fewer defensive obligations.

Bergwijn has been excellent so far, and comes deep to flight a diag over the top for Son, forcing Petrovic to stretch a head behind. The corner comes to nowt.

Now we see some action I missed when my stream vanished again, Bergwijn taking a pass on the half-turn and knocking it past Masoero, who extends a thigh directly into his road, bringing him down. I've not a clue how that isn't a penalty, but it isn't - to Mourinho's intense mirth.

Nice feet again from Kane, rolling studs over the ball then driving just wide from 20 yards. He's so good from that range.

I wonder what Mourinho makes of Davison Sanchez. When Man United played Ajax in the final of this competition, he had his strikers make sure it was always Sanchez left to play the ball out, because he was bad at it. And now here they both are.

Karagaren nashes down the left and chops inside Hojbjerg, who runs off for a bag of chips, then clips a decent cross to the far post, which Amalica attacks as if his life depends on it, powering through Doherty to send the ball over the top while conceding a free-kick.

Bergwijn looks really lively, dashing down the left and drawing a foul from Petrovic. I wonder what the plan for him is, because Mourinho isn't mad about rotation and there's no chance he's getting picked ahead of Bale until it's get yourself sacked time, but he looks like a player.

Why do Spurs need two midfield lumps against the sixth-best team in Bulgaria?

Spurs are starting to dictate possession - not something for which their midfield is especially suited - and they play into Lo Celso after Sissoko plays a one-two off Son, but the resultant shot, hit the when ball bounces up, flies over the bar.

Dinis Costa is late on Son, giving Spurs a free-kick that goes straight up to Didier Kane. He controls beautifully and feeds Bergwijn, whose lashed shot is blocked at source.

Nothing to do with this except everything to do with everything.

Er, my stream drops out, returns but from kick-off, then jumps just as Bergwijn rams a shot from distance that flies only just over the bar.

Nice interplay between Bergwijn and Son, exchanging passes, but the former wanders offside seeking the latter's second return.

I wonder where the return to fitness of Lo Celso leaves Dele Alli. He's still young, with plenty of time to become the player he could be, but Mourinho isn't really into number 10s, which he is. I once hoped he'd become a box to box player, because it's not enough to score, assist, or do nothing, and I think he'll have to to have a future under becomes something different to what he is now. Other hand, Mourinho might get himself sacked in a few months.

Very 1994 vibes about this Spurs kit, but weird that the players all look like they're wet about the midriff.

And Spurs counter - ctrl c - Lo Celso finding Son, who drags a low shot across Lukov that the keeper saves with his foot.

Sanchez ploughs through Vitanov, giving Plovdiv a chance to stick one in the box, but Doherty heads the free-kick away.

Off we go!
