Goal
GOAL! TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 3 - 0 WEST HAM UNITED (BENT) Darren Bent gets on the end of a wicked cross into the area.
89
Tottenham continue to dominate the game, West Ham can not get near the ball as Huddlestone and co pass the ball around the pitch with great confidence.
88
The West Ham fans are leaving their seats after seeing enough, while the Spurs fans chant 'We want the fourth', referring to another goal from their side. This will add to a horrible run of results for the Hammers.
86
Goal
GOAL! TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 3 - 0 WEST HAM (GILBERTO) Gilberto Da Silva turned and drove home Spurs' third goal to finish West Ham off.
84
Berbatov just clips a free kick over the bar from twenty yards out. West Ham weather the storm still.
81
A good run and cross by Mark Noble but Carlton Cole can't quite connect cleanly with the ball and it went out for a goal kick.
78
Gilberto tried to let fly from around twenty five yards from goal, but his effort lacked precision and curved wide of the goal.
77

Dean Ashton is given a deserved rest and is replaced by Carlton Cole.
76
Substitution
Jonathan Woodgate is forced to leave the pitch and is replaced by Teemu Tainio.
74
Substitution
Scott Parker is replaced by Mark Noble.
73
Jonathan Woodgate stamped his authority on a cross into the area from West Ham, the England defender took the ball out of the air like Dimitar Berbatov and advanced brilliantly down the wing, but he pulled up and looks to have injured himself.
70
The game is paused for Alan Hutton to momentarily leave the field of play and change his shirt which is covered in his own blood following a clash of heads with Zokora.
69
Substitution
Freddie Ljungberg is replaced by John Paintsil but still continues to rant on to the linesman on exit from the pitch.

Substitution
Robbie Keane is replaced by Darren Bent and receives a rapturous applause from the home crowd.
67
Yellow Card
Freddie Ljungberg is booked for stupidly talking his way into Chris Foy's notebook after complaining to the linesman about a decision he made just earlier.
65
Gilberto looks much more comfortable for Spurs playing ahead of Pascal Chimbonda on the left of midfield, after looking very incompetent at full back against PSV. Moments ago he did well to get around Neill and deliver a decent ball into the area.
63
Dean Ashton is working tirelessly hard up front for West Ham, but he has no one to knock the ball onto and his efforts are wasted as a lone striker with no support.
61
Lucas Neill welcomes substitute Gilberto to the game with a crashing ball-winning tackle.
59
Substitution
Steed Malbranque is replaced by Gilberto.
57
Tottenham move straight back up the other end of the field and almost grab a third goal but Aaron Lennon's effort was cleared off the line by Anton Ferdinand with some very good defending.
56
The game is becoming more open. West Ham had a good chance to grab a goal back as they peppered Paul Robinson with a number of efforts, Pascal Chimbonda did well though to block Ljungberg's effort. West Ham were unlucky.
54
Robbie Keane uses his nimble, clever feet to move around his helpless marker Anton Ferdinand but his shot is caught well by Robert Green. Good hands from the 'Keeper.
52
Spurs moved the ball down the right with pace and Lennon's ball inside for Huddlestone let the midfielder pull the trigger with little effort, his strike was powerful but flew past the post.
51
Scott Parker is lucky to get away with a nasty challenge on Didier Zokora. Replays suggest it was a definate yellow card.
50
Spurs have yet to come out of the blocks after the break, and can not afford to get complacent.
48
West Ham make a bright, positive start to the second half and need to continue like this if they are to get anything out of this game.
Second half
Tottenham get the game back underway for the second half.
Half time
Tottenham deservedly lead at the half time break and the game is as good as over for West Ham.
45
West Ham's body language is not a good sign for the Hammers. They look deflated and now have a mountain to climb in the second half with ten men and a two goal defecit.
44
Red Card
Luis Boa Morte was an accident waiting to happen and eventually his frustration turned into stupidity as he crashed into a challenge on Aaron Lennon and recieves his second yellow card.
40
The Tottenham fans again are quick to jump on the back of Luis Boa Morte after the ex-Gunner makes another mistake as he over hit his left footed cross.
38
Berbatov is denied his first half hat-rick after a technically magnificent swivel, turn and connection with a volley that was unfortunately hit straight down Robert Green's throat for Tottenham and their magician.
35
Marlbranque did well to cut inside and get the better of Lucas Neill, but he dragged his right footed shot a good few yards wide of the mark.
33
Spurs have started the showboating with only 33 minutes gone, Berbatov's nifty back heel for Steed Marlbranque is greeted by rafters of cheers from the White Hart Lane faithful.
31
Everything is going through Tom Huddlestone for Tottenham, the midfielder's passing has been phenomenal so far and he has orchestrated everything.
29
Tottenham are in total control of the game, the home side are dominating possession and moving the ball around the pitch fluently.
27
Scott Parker is pulled up for a late tackle on Didier Zokora by Chris Foy. This is the midfielders first game back for two and a half month and he looks a bit rusty if I'm being honest, so far it hasn't been the Scott Parker that we all know.
25
Paul Robinson will have done his confidence the world of good after a couple of poor mistakes early on, with a good take inside a packed penalty area.
22
Yellow Card
Luis Boa Morte finally recieves a yellow card after a string of persistant fouls, I think Chris Foy has been itching to give him it.
19
A piece of magic from Aaron Lennon's hat, the winger made a glittering run from just inside his own half dropping his shoulder and junking in and out of George McCartney and Luis Boa Morte, but his final ball was too hard for Huddlestone to keep down
16
Alan Hutton is left a little worse for wear after Luis Boa Morte crashed into him from behind, the Scotsman looks in some pain.
15
West Ham have continued as they started the game, they look very dangerous on the break but still twice as vunerable at the back. There's still more goals in this game.
12
A fantastic start to the game here at White Hart Lane, we could be on for a repeat of the 4-3 game at Upton Park last season.
10
Goal

4
The home side are put under some severe pressure with Paul Robinson left seriously lucky to get away with a duo of mistakes, the goalkeeper firstly dropped Ljungberg's shot and then fumbled the ball from both Ashton's then Zamora's shots. Chance.
3
Freddie Ljungberg is penalised by Chris Foy for an apparent handball as he brought the ball down deep in the Spurs half of the pitch.
1
Hayden Mullins has the first effort of the game with a long range strike that seemingly flies way past the upright for West Ham.
