A delay before the penalty, Palacios has stayed down and appears t have been caught in the face by Hibbert.

Tottenham win a penalty! Hibbert brings down Palacios as he looks to latch onto a Peter Crouch knockdown and Spurs have a great chance to snatch the victory.

Four minutes of added time to be played! It's far from over yet.

Palacios fouls Fellaini and gives Pienaar a chance to deliver from the free-kick. The ball is swung in and finds Fellaini who rises to head goalwards but he steers it wide of the target.

Everton come forward again and the ball drops for Saha in the box and he tries a spectacular overhead kick and strikes it sweetly but it flies fractionally over the top. What an equaliser that would have been!

Lennon skips past Pienaar at tremedous pace and appears to be caught but stays on his feet and eventually loses possession. If he had gone down the visitors would have had an excellent penalty shout.

Defoe looks to restore the two goal advantage as he turns and shoots in trademark fashion from the edge of the box but the strike goes wide of the far post.

It could easily have been three! Crouch has had a quiet game but he gets goal side of his man and is threaded in by a tidy through ball but his left-footed effort goes wide from the left channel. A good chance missed for Spurs.

Everton come forward again as they try to force their way back into this game. Yakubu brings the ball down the right touchline and looks to pick out Saha with the cross but it's well overhit and floats over everyone.

Yakubu finds half a yard of space inside the Spurs box but he rushes the shot and Gomes is able to make a comfortable save. The Yakubu of a few seasons ago would of buried that!

Corluka brings down Pienaar on the right hand side and gives Baines an opportunity to deliver the ball into the area. Baines delivery comes to nothing and the home fans' frustration grows further.

Jo picks the ball up on the edge of the box with his back to goal. Jo is isolated and has to go alone and manages to turn onto his left foot and strike for goal but he fires over.

Bale fouls Cahill on the Everton right and concedes a free-kick that Bilyaletdinov will deliver. Everton will hope to make something of this but as the ball comes in Crouch does well to make an awkward clearance.

The home fans are getting behind the players now as Jo hounds Corluka in the right back position but the Croatian does well to usher the ball out of play. David Moyes will be encouraged by the way his side has responded to Defoe's opener.

Everton look to respond to going behind and they know they could do with a result today! Bilyaletdinov looks to conjure an instant response with a strike from range but the effort sails high and wide of the target.

Jermain Defoe has gotten in behind Neill again using his pace and looks to take on Tim Howard but the keeper gets a fingertip to the ball as Defoe goes by him and Hibbert is able to clear. Fine goalkeeping from the American.

The game is starting to heat up now with lots of hard tackles coming in especially in the middle of the park. Pienaar looks to slide Jo through again but the striker has strayed offside.

Tony Hibbert makes a superb sliding challenge to deny Jermain Defoe a one-on-one chance with Tim Howard. Crouch is down, and the visitors appear to be complaining about Fellaini's use of the elbow.

Tottenham put together a fine move and it ends in Defoe taking a shot from twelve yards but the striker struggles to get the ball out of his feet and drags the effort wide off balance.

Jack Rodwell catches Lennon late as the winger skips past Rodwell who was lucky to evade a second yellow card, he needs to be careful!

Leighton Baines delivers a free-kick form the right touchline but it's too close to Gomes and the Brazilian keeper comes out smartly to gather the cross.

Jack Rodewell is looking dangerous today, he finds space in midfield again and picks out Jo with a fine pass. The striker turns on the edge of the box and shoots left-footed but the strike zips just wide of the upright.

Kranjcar crafts half-a-yard for himslef twenty-five yards out and shapes to shoot but Hibbert throws himself in the path of the shot to make the block.

A high ball is delivered towards the Spurs six yard box and Fellaini is coming in on it but Gomes rises to punch clear. The clearance is somewhat unconvincing but it does the trick!

Tottenham will look to capitalise on Everton's unfamiliar back-four and Defoe finds space in the box and looks to test Howard but the American keeper makes a solid stop at his near post.

Pienarr shows some quality in midfield as he steps away from Kranjcar and looks to thread the ball into the path of Jo but the pass is slightly overhit and runs through to Gomes.

Jermain Defoe gets in behind Yobo and races into the box. He shoots left-footed but scuffs it somewhat and Howard is able to save with his legs.

Lennon looks uo for it today. He runs at Baines again but this time looks ot crfoss early and curls it in behind the defenders but it just evades Crouch in the middle.

Great chance to open the scoring! Lennon tears down the right hand side and cuts inside before picking out Crouch but the striker fires over from fifteen yards.

Again Everton come forward with Fellaini this time. The midfielder strides forward and has options left and right but opts to shoot from range and sends it well wide to the frustration of his team-mates and the home fans.

Everton work the ball forward through the midfield with some near passing and Rodwell picks the ball up inside the box, he shifts it onto his right foot but is forced wide and can only find the arms of Gomes with the shot.

Spurs break quickly again and Lennon surges at Leighton Baines from the right hand side, he takes a shot but the full-back makes a block and sends the ball behind.

Tottenham force an early corner and Niko Kranjcar takes it from the right hand side. The ball swings towards the penalty spot and finds Dawson but he heads over the bar.
