    • 90' Into added time now and there will be two minutes of it.
    • 89' Into the last moments of this fourth round clash and Spurs easing through here.
    • 86' Bentley with the corner and when it comes out to Palacios he has a go, but that's wide.
    • 85' Bale on the attack now for Spurs and Distin has to be sharp to make the block.
    • 83' Jo goes down in the box under a challenge from Bassong, but nothing doing from the ref.
    • 82' Spurs fans singing 'You're getting sacked in the morning' now to David Moyes, as the hosts attack through Hutton and Huddlestone.
    • 80' Into the last ten minutes here at White Hart Lane.
    • 78' Bentley has a shot, which goes wide. Not a bad effort, but Howard probably had it covered.
    • 76' Assou-Ekotto looks for Pavlyuchenko, but Distin clears.
    • 75' Cahill and Yakubu in a good move for Everton and it falls for Neill, whose pass just fails to reach Rodwell. Good situation for Everton, but Spurs can break.
    • 73' Chance for Pavlyuchenko, but his first touch is poor and the groans from the home crowd are audible.
    • 72' Hutton almost puts it past his own keeper there! Gomes just gets back and saves!
    • 71' Bentley, who is having a good game now, with the corner, but that's cleared by Everton.
    • 70' Bentley again into Keane, who is one-on-one, but Heitinga just gets across to make the tackle.
    • 67' Bentley great pass to Hutton, who can't quite find Keane. Almost a great chance for Spurs.
    • 66' Jo with the corner to Fellaini, who heads it over the bar.
    • 65' Fellaini makes Gomes make another save! Low strike from Fellaini and the keeper turns it away for a corner.
    • 64' This one goes to the back post where Distin gets it clear, then Assou-Ekotto has a go from miles out which is...miles wide!
    • 63' Bentley with a corner for Spurs, which Jo heads away. It's another corner though.
    • 61' Bassong to Bale, who just keeps the ball in, then gets it back until Cahill robs him and sets up the Everton counter.
    • 60' Assou-Ekotto makes a good defensive stop from Cahill after good work from Yakubu.
    • 58' Pavlyuchenko through now and Howard forced into a save!
    • 57' GOAL!! Not from the penalty though! Keane misses and in the end gets another chance after a scramble. Poor penalty, but Keane gets away with it!
    • 56' PENALTY!! To Spurs. Keane goes down and it's Distin that fells him.
    • 55' Everton start the second half better than they ended the first and Jo forces Gomes to make another save! Good work Gomes, but Jo could have done better.
    • 53' Everton break and Assou-Ekotto has to make a smart challenge.
    • 52' Keane stays down, but is up now and should be OK to carry on, but he is hobbling quite badly.
    • 51' Huddlestone to Keane - great ball, but he's challenged and goes down holding his head. More good defending from Everton.
    • 49' Bentley sets up Keane, who feeds Pavlyuchenko, but great defending from Heitinga for Everton.
    • 48' Dawson and Yakubu clash and Dawson is down for the moment.
    • 48' Hibbert has gone to left back with Neill at right back now for Everton.
    • 47' Gomes saves from Cahill! Jo with his first touch sets up Cahill, who shoots left footed and that's a decent save!
    • 46' Back underway with the second half at White Hart Lane and Jo is on for Saha for Everton.
    • - The whistle goes for half time. 1-0 Spurs. Back with more soon (and perhaps an updated team sheet with a bit of luck.)
    • 45' Into two mins of added time now, as Pavlyuchenko penalised for handball.
    • 44' Cahill takes a knock in a challenge for the ball, but he should be OK.
    • 44' Tight offside decision there on Keane, who had broken through the Everton defence. Poor decision there from the official.
    • 43' Another corner for Everton is a better one, but Gomes takes command.
    • 42' Everton have a corner, but the ball in is a poor one from Gosling.
    • 40' Bentley and Hutton combining and Hutton's cross is cleared. Spurs on top just now.
    • 39' Saha is OK and Spurs attack through Pavlyuchenko.
    • 37' Saha goes down after getting a knock on the head.
    • 36' Heitinga in trouble here.... a cynical foul on Keane, who's going through on goal. The card is yellow for Heitinga.
    • 35' Bale hits a free kick in towards Dawson and Neill gets it clear.
    • 33' Hibbert is booked for a foul on Hutton.
    • 31' GOAL!!! Huddlestone with the left foot volley!! Bentley plays it in over the top of Keane and Pavlyuchenko and Huddlestone arrives to lash it home!! 1-0 SPURS!
    • 30' SPURS HIT THE POST!! Keane it is after Distin makes an error by falling over. Keane is one-on-one with Howard but finds the woodwork!!
    • 30' Huddlestone gives the ball away and Everton attack with Saha, who gives it to Yakubu, whose shot is easy for Gomes.
    • 29' Cahill goes through, but he's offside.
    • 28' The corner goes right across the six yard box and Heitinga is there, but it glances off his head and will be a goal kick.
    • 27' Everton on the attack and have a corner conceded by Bentley.
    • 25' Bale on the left for Spurs, then Bentley gets caught by Cahill and the ball finds Pavlyuchenko, who has a go, but that's wide.
    • 24' Pavlyuchenko penalised for a foul on Distin.
    • 22' Pavlyuchenko with a chance now for Spurs and his shot goes wide! Good opportunity for Spurs.
    • 21' Fellaini again involved as he cathes Palacios in the face. Now Pavlyuchenko goes down, then gets back up again very quickly.
    • 19' Spurs get a free kick. Fellaini the culprit this time.
    • 18' Dawson gets a talking to from the referee after a couple of fouls. Rodwell with the free kick for Everton, but Palacios gets it clear.
    • 16' Hutton to Palacios, then to Bentley and Pavlyuchenko tries to flick it to Huddlestone, but it's not quite accurate enough. Good move though.
    • 15' Gosling tries a left footed volley, but that one flies well over the bar of Gomes.
    • 13' Bentley again down the right and Cahill blocks this one. Bentley's had a few crossing attempts, but hasn't taken advantage of them yet.
    • 11' Hutton and Bentley combine, but Distin gets the cross away and Everton come away with the ball. Rodwell has a shot, but it deflects off Cahill and goes wide.
    • 10' Distin in two minds there as Keane closes in, but Howard comes to collect in the end.
    • 9' Very bright start here at White Hart Lane, as Bentley tries the shot, which is mis-hit in the end.
    • 8' Chance for Keane now, but he tries to play in Pavlyuchenko and the chance is gone.
    • 7' We're having a technical problem changing the expected team line-up's by the way, but I'm assured it will change soon.
    • 6' Spurs breaking now with Pavlyuchenko and Hibbert whacks it clear.
    • 5' Saha takes the shot and Gomes has to make a great save to tip it over the bar!!
    • 4' Heitinga hits it, but it hits the wall and bounces to safety.
    • 4' Free kick to Everton here in a great position. Dawson fouling Saha there on the edge of the area.
    • 3' Bentley takes it and Distin gets it clear. Bale puts it back in, then Palacios does the same and Everton are awarded a free kick for a foul on Fellaini.
    • 2' Early corner to Spurs, who have started brightly.
    • 2' Bentley down the right for Spurs early on here, as Everton sport an unusual purple kit.
    • 1' We're underway at White Hart Lane!
    • - The last time these two side met in any cup competition was in the 1995 FA Cup Semi Final in which Everton emerged victorious 4-1 with goals from Daniel Amokachi (2), Graham Stuart and Matt Jackson. Spurs' scorer that day was Jurgen Klinsmann.
    • - Everton have won in their last three visits to White Hart Lane.
    • - Spurs, meanwhile have won the League Cup four times and have reached at least the last eight in five of the last sixm seasons.
    • - A few stats for you as we await this 8pm kick-off: Everton, surprisingly, have never won the League Cup in their history and have only made it past the quater finals in their last 21 attempts.
    • - On the bench for the hosts tonight are: - Button, Jenas, Naughton, Corluka, Dervite, Parrett, and Kane.
    • - And the Spurs starting line-up is: - Gomes; Hutton, Bassong, Dawson, Assou-Ekotto; Bentley, Huddlestone, Palacios, Bale; Keane, Pavlyuchenko.
    • - The subs for the Toffees tonight are: Jo, Carlo Nash, James Wallace, Jose Baxter, Kieran Agard, Seamus Coleman and Shane Duffy.
    • - Everton team news is in and their side tonight looks like this: Howard; Hibbert, Heitinga, Distin, Neill; Rodwell, Gosling, Fellaini, Cahill (captain), Rodwell; Yakubu, Saha.
    • - This is the first ever meeting between the two teams in the League Cup in any of its guises!
    • - Still waiting for the official team news to filter through, but Spurs look set to be without Aaron Lennon, Ledley King, Nico Kranjcar, Jonathan Woodgate and Jermain Defoe.
    • - Welcome to our LIVE coverage of tonight's Carling Cup fourth round clash between Spurs and Everton at White Hart Lane!

  3. 172. rblackhurst2008,

    Your claims are fake and­ unfounded. Keane isn't a Liverpool cast-off - It is­ the other way around. Crouch could of gone to Spurs­ earlier but he wasn't half the player he is now. I­ am not saying Crouch is the best striker around­ either.

    COYS.

    No disrespect I like Tottenham although­ like Everton the team I grew up supporting they are­ poor relations.
    I am a great admirer of Ledley King and­ even Defoe has played quite well this season
    players­ like Lennon, Keane and Crouch are nothing great.
    Keane­ and Crouch are Liverpool cast offs and the most amusing­ thing is Spurs could have secured Crouch on a contract­ as a youth team player for nothing.
    Under Redknapp you­ can look forward to success in cup competitions but­ will never win the premiership.

    From rblackhurst2008, on Wed 28 Oct 11:15AM

  5. Heitinka should go to spurs. Seems like he is a good­ player that needs a good home (no offence meant­ blues)

    COYS!

  6. 168 - I agree with Wilson. And I"m not even­ biast!

    COYS!! ;-)

  7. #101 & #102 Not sure how you figure Oct 22- Oct 27­ is 72 hours, but I am fairly certain that Spurs­ haven't LOST three games in that amount of time­ with half a squad. And why would you brag about a 5th­ place finish? Everton were the best team NOT to qualify­ for the CL -- yippee!

    From WilsonJet, on Wed 28 Oct 3:41AM

  8. More muppet excuses... you were outplayed by a team­ without its top striker, wingers, and center­ backs.
    I'll bet Everton doesn't finish ahead of­ Tottenham in any competion this year.

    From PAUL, on Tue 27 Oct 11:43PM

  10. spurs have not had a manager as good as moyes in living­ memory. he's going nowhere, and when he does he­ won't be going to unnderachieving trash clubs like­ spurs.

    From David, on Tue 27 Oct 10:13PM
