- 104' What a chance. Walters only had Gomes to beat after a quickly-taken free-kick caught Spurs napping. But he poked his shot wide.
- 100' Pennant chops down Townsend. No booking for Pennant but a free-kick just outside the box for Spurs. It comes to nothing.
- 99' Shotton will battle on for now.
- 97' Shotton is down and appears hurt. He's getting extensive treatment.

- 50' Sorensen’s hands are stung by a Pavlyuchenko piledriver from 25 yards as Spurs increase the pressure.
- 52' Van der Vaart is fouled by Huth on the edge of the box. It looked like a goalscoring position but no card is given.

- 45+1' There goes the half-time whistle. Hopefully the second half will be better.

- 23' Crouch gets back to make a great tackle on Corluka.
- 15' It's very congested out there. Both sides struggling to get a foothold on the game.
- 12' Huth heads Etherington's corner over the bar. Huth should have hit the target.
- 10' Jones is injured and Crouch comes on in his place. Looks like a hamstring problem for Jones.
- 8' Now a Pennant cross smacks Assou-Ekotto straight in the face. Ow.
