SO HARRY KANE DOES IT AGAIN
He is absolutely ridiculous.

FULL-TIME: Fulham 0-1 Spurs
90+6'
HARRY KANE
Is Alan Smith's man of the match. Fair dos, he scored what's almost definitely the winner, and in great style. No one else has done anything even a 22nd as good as that.
90+4'
IF SPURS WIN
They'll be only the second away side so to do at the Cottage this season. The other is Man United, who needed a last-minute jazzer from Alejandro Garnacho. Fulham were much better that day.
90+2'
I CAN'T THINK OF ONE REALLY GOD CHANCE FULHAM HAVE CREATED
All night. They've not been poor - they've played pretty well in a fair few aspects - but just haven't had the bit of kwalitee you need to make things happen against Spurs-level team.

SIX ADDED MINUTES
Spurs send on Bissouma for Kulusevski.

ROBINSON SLIPS AND IS CAUGHT ON THE HEAD BY THE ONRUSHING KULUSEVSKI
There's a pause while he's treated, and Spurs are irritated because they had Richarlison free on the counter.
88'
IT'S SOMETHING I GUESS
Solomon tries a curler that's heading wide, so Lloris tips around the post to needlessly concede a corner that's easily dealt with.

EESH, MITROVIC IS HURT HAVING BEEN TRODDEN ON BY DIER
But he opts to stay on, so Fulham withdraw De Cordova-Reid and Wilian, sending on Vinicius and Wilson.
84'
NOTHING IS HAPPENING
Fulham are hoping but there's no conviction in their play.
82'
SO FAR
Spurs have seen this out very comfortably. Fulham have run out of ideas and don't have the class to make stuff happen on a bad day.

CHANGE FOR FULHAM
Solomon, a striker, replaces Tete.
79'
HERE'S KANE AGAIN!
A high ball into Dier, on the far side of the box is cushioned down nicely for Spurs' join-equal all-time top scorer and he's onto it in a flash, taking it away from the defender and drilling a low shot around the near post. I thought he'd score there; I'm sure he did too.

PALHINHA IS LATE ON KANE...
...And he's been booked remember. But this isn't dreadful - it was out wide and seen coming, Kane dipping inside then leaping over a minor bodycheck. A second yellow would've been harsh but defensible and, amusingly, Bentancur is booked for complaining.

BETTER FROM FULHAM
Cairney spreads, Willian nudges the ball back inside to him ... and he curves a long cross to the back post where Mitrovic looks to nod towards the far corner, but can't get over the ball and it loops high.
73'
FULHAM WIN A CORNER
Can't do anything good with it but Spurs can't clear it properly so more of the same will follow. Bentancur is down having clashed heads defending the corner and Kulusevski then took a kick trying to get it further away, but both will be fine.
72'
ON THE OTHER HAND
I know I said Fulham look unlikely to score, but if Spurs sit back at they are, I don't especially trust their defence or keeper to behave competently if the ball spends a lot of time in their box.

ROMERO CANNOT HELP HIMSELF
He attacks a bouncing ball with foot high and even though he knew so doing would necessarily mean hoofing Mitrovic in the chest. He's booked, for the fourth game on the bike.
69'
ROBINSON WEAVES INSIDE A PAIR OF CHALLENGES
It's nice, but the only pass on is square to Cairney. In general, Fulham have looked to overload out wide, but they need a greater presence in the box.
