Tottenham laboured to a 3-0 victory over Derby County at Pride Park. More
90+3 All over at Pride Park! The result is harsh on Derby, but Tottenham ran out worthy winners. Thanks for joining us, stay right here for all the rest of the day's action!
90+3 ... He rolls it into the bottom corner to put the gloss on the win!
90+2 PENALTY!! Malbranque's shot hits the arm of Alan Stubbs, and the referee harshly gives a penalty! Berbatov will take it...
80' GOAL!! A Tottenham corner deflects over to Chimbonda, who has the time to nod the ball into the path of Kaboul. The centre back feints a shot to beat Todd and then powers a low drive past Carroll to double Tottenham's lead!
77' Derby's final change is to bring on David Jones for Marc Edworthy.
74' The impressive Savage is sacrificed to make way for Mile Sterjovski as Paul Jewell is now chasing a point.
73' Some great play by Spurs as Jenas break into the box and SHOOTS... The block is blocked but KEANE ON THE FOLLOW-UP... Great save Carroll! Keane's effort was from almost point blank range!
67' GOAL!! Steed Malbranque's low shot is saved by Carroll, but he palms it right into the path of Keane for the simplest of tap-ins! Carroll has been so good for Derby too!
63' Berbatov lifts a ball into the area and it falls for KEANE... OFF THE POST! The offside flag was up anyway, as Lennon was well offside, but not affecting play.
58' Darren Bent's rare appearance comes to a close as he is replaced by Berbatov. Can the Bulgarian turn things round in time?
57' Kenny Miller is booked for a cynical trip on Jenas.
53' Fagan fouls Lennon on the left wing. O'Hara swings it over and Huddlestone is at the far post to control and SHOOT... Another great save by Carroll at the near post!
48' Chimbonda goes into the book for an over-zealous challenge on Marc Edworthy.
46' Juande Ramos also noticed the stinker that Boateng was having, and brought on O'Hara at half time for the German.
46' Derby kick off the second half.
45+3 Half time called at Pride Park, and the home side have been better.
38' Dean Leacock is the first man to go into the referee's book for a foul on Malbranque, whio goes off to receive treatment.
38' Lennon runs at Edworthy and the full back is floundering. The winger has the option for the pass but keeps going and Spurs will have to settle for a corner. The corner is only half-cleared and falls to JENAS... OVER THE BAR!
35' Jenas controls well with his chest and releases Keane but the Irishman is flagged for offside! Replays suggest otherwise though.
32' Lennon and Hutton combine well to win a corner, but the winger's corner is not a danger. Spurs come again and Lennon gets to the byline and chips it back for KABOUL... He steered the ball on target but straight at Carroll! Keane was right behind Kaboul waiting for it!
23' Pearson carries it through the middle and slips the ball between the two centre backs and BARNES POKES IT WIDE! He had Cerny sprawling and the goal at his mercy but he stabbed the effort off target! Chance of the match so far!
15' Miller latches onto the through ball and is one-on-one with Cerny! OFFSIDE ! That's the second time Miller's jumped the gun already. The SPurs defence were caught flat-footed there.
14' Another early defensive change is made as Younes Kaboul replaces the injured Dawson.
13' Derby take advantage and Pearson powers forward and feeds VILLA... Cerny is equal to the low shot from the Argentinian!
12' Spurs are temporarily down to ten men, as Michael Dawson walks off with a physio.
10' An early substitution here for Derby, as Darren Moore comes off for Andy Todd. Moore jogs off, but we can only assume that he is carrying some sort of injury.
9' Malbranque dummies cleverly and Keane turns and SHOOTS FROM THE EDGE OF THE BOX... Saved again by Carroll! The corner is cleared away easily.
7' Darren Bent gets his first chance to stretch his legs. He runs at Moore and beats him and SHOOTS... Carroll gets down at the near post but spills it back towards Bent... The goalkeeper pounces on the loose ball just in time! How Darren Bent must be desperate for a goal!
