NO PENALTY! Trippier's cross is blocked by Schlupp, but did he use his hand? After checking with VAR, the referee Friend says play on. It isn't going to be Tottenham's day.

Spurs need something now. There is no more time to waste.

SAVE! Gazzaniga gets down quickly to parry Zaha's driven shoot. Palace have just over five minutes to hold on now.
81'
SPURS SUB: A last throw of the dice from Pochettino, as Kazaiah Sterling comes on for Moura. Can the youngster make a name for himself?

Trippier's shot is blocked and then Skipp overcooks his cross, as Spurs' frustration continues.
75'
Palace are enjoying a decent spell of possession here - and that isn't what Spurs fans will want to hear. They have 15 minutes for their side to find two goals to just bring this tie to a replay.
71'
OVER! Moura gets up well to meet a corner delivery but he can't guide his header on target. He punches the surface in anger. Time is running out for Spurs.

GOOD DEFENDING! Zaha finds himself in a one-on-one situation with Foyth but the youngsters stand up to the task, winning the ball with a perfectly-timed challenge.
67'
CLOSE! Spurs continue to knock on the door. Trippier strikes a half-volley at goal and Llorente isn't able to turn it in at the far post.
65'
Evidence of just one of Speroni's saves today.

SPURS SUB! Victor Wanyama replaces Dier, who passes the armband to Trippier.

GOOD SAVE! Questions were asked of Speroni following his mistake in that 4-3 defeat to Liverpool last weekend but he's having a great game today. He stays big to stop Llorente's shot from point-blank range.
61'
OVER! Van Aanholt can't find a way past the wall, he gets a second bite of the cherry but blasts the follow-up into row-Z.
