Match report in news

  • 94'
    FT: Sheff Utd 1-3 Tottenham!! All over at Bramall Lane and Spurs deservedly win this one. It was very comfortable, to be honest. Aurier and Kane had put Spurs two up at the break, McGoldrick pulled one back for the Blades just before the hour mark as the home side sent more men forward, but Ndombele's lovely chip in the 62nd minute put Spurs 1-3 up and the result was never in doubt after that.

    The Blades aren't playing badly. They've just been a bit sloppy at the back and lack the cutting edge in the final third.

  • 45'
    HT: Sheff Utd 0-2 Tottenham!! Half-time at Bramall Lane and the visitors deserve their lead. Aurier headed home a Son corner after five minutes, Son hit the post two minutes later and Mourinho's men were dominant. The home side came into the game after the first 20 minutes, but Norwood's error was punished by Kane and Chris Wilder's men have an uphill task in the second 45. Burke has looked good for the Blades, but Lloris hasn't really been tested. Back shortly!
  • 45'
    45+1: Bogle gets a corner off Davies here.
  • 45'
    There looks a gulf in class between the sides here. Two added minutes.
  • 43'
    Bogle sees his shot blocked by Dier and then Basham's ball in is headed away for a corner.
  • 41'
    Norwood got the Blades in trouble there and Spurs punished him. That's the difference between the two sides. The visitors have more of a cutting edge.

    Harry Kane makes it two!! Norwood miscontrols Bogle's pass, Hojbjerg gets the ball back for Spurs, he plays in Kane who runs, controls and then picks his spot in the far corner.
  • 38'
    That so nearly went in!! Son's cross into the area sees Ampadu's clearance go straight up in the air, Ampadu just stands there and Ramsdale has to punch away to prevent the ball sneaking in!!
  • 35'
    Fleck has a long range effort which is easy for the GK. The game is more even now.
  • 35'
    70% possession for the visitors so far.
  • 34'
    Burke goes down Spurs' right, but his cross doesn't find a teammate back in the middle. The Scot had looked sharp for the Blades.

  • 31'
    Ndombele looks for a teammate in the box and the Blades deal with it.

  • 5'
    And Spurs take the lead through Aurier! Son's corner is headed by Aurier inside the six yard box. Ramsdale comes out of his goal and then retreats and the defending wasn't great either. The worst possible start for Wilder's men.
  • 4'
    Bergwijn!!!! He and Kane combine superbly with a lovely one-two and the Dutchman's shot is tipped over the bar by the GK!
  • 3'
    The home side have a bit of possession here now at midfield. Quiet start to this one.
