  1. YELLOW CARD

    Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Eric Dier struggles to tackle Danny Welbeck and pulls the Arsenal forward back. Yellow card. 

  2. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Spurs are after a third. Good build-up arrives at the feet of Harry Kane, a quick jink, a turn and a shot which whistles past the far post. 

    Kane is the first Tottenham player to score in three successive Premier League North London derbies against Arsenal since Rafael van der Vaart (Nov 2010, Apr 2011 & Oct 2011).

  4. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Per Mertesacker now wins ironic cheers from the Spurs faithful after shanking the ball out. Danny Rose, who again has space on the left, shoots from 20 yards out but drags it wide. 

  5. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    So here we go. Spurs sniffing victory, and it's a significant one. They will go top of the league if they can hang on against 10-man Arsenal. Alexis Sanchez tries his luck from distance but it's well off-target. 

    And breathe. 

  6. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Whatever it is, Lineker is right.

  8. YELLOW CARD

    Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Alexis Sanchez goes into the book now for a push on Erik Lamela. Literally pushing their luck now, Arsenal. Lamela, already booked don't forget, is now replaced by Ryan Mason. Smart move.

  9. 'What a goal'

    Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Danny Murphy
    Ex-Tottenham midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    "This place has erupted! Forget the enormity of the game... what a goal that was. Harry Kane should never be able to do that from there.

    "Doesn't he love playing against Arsenal! What an opportunity for Tottenham now."

  10. White Hart Lane comes alive

    BBC Sport chief football writer at White Hart Lane

    White Hart Lane had become subdued as Arsenal looked in calm control in the early stages of the second half - but now the old place is rocking as this game has been turned on its head and Spurs lead.

    The whole mood changed with Francis Coquelin's senseless second yellow card and now Arsenal are being subjected to a real assault from Spurs.

  11. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Erik Lamela swings it over and Arsenal head clear to a cacophony of noise. It really is White Hot Lane right now. 

  12. Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Another chance for Tottenham as Eric Dier is found on the edge of the penalty area, towards the right. He fires on goal and David Opsina saves. Spurs have another corner. This is amazing. 

  13. goal

    GOAL Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal

    Harry Kane (62 mins)

    What a goal this is. Dele Alli picks Per Mertesacker's pocket near the corner flag, passes back to Harry Kane and he curls it amazingly into the far corner for his 20th of the season. Has he scored a bigger goal?

    GOAL Tottenham 1-1 Arsenal

    Toby Alderweireld

    And this is a game-changer. Spurs win another corner, Erik Lamela touches it back, and Toby Alderweireld was lurking at the front post to smash low and hard into the net.

  15. 'Stupid!'

    Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

    Danny Murphy
    Ex-Tottenham midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    "I actually feel sorry for Coquelin there. He did go to ground but the ball was there to be won!

    "I don't think Kane would have had the pace to get in. That was stupid!

    "His first yellow was for a hand ball in the first-half. Both are nothing cards."

  16. GREAT SAVE!

    Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

    The corner is taken deep to Harry Kane at the back post and David Ospina makes another brilliant save. Goal-line technology replays show it was millimetres from going over the line. It could not have been closer. Ospina down injured now. He's ok to carry on, though. 

  17. Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

    So what will that do to change the game? Referee Michael Oliver was almost reluctant to brandish another yellow card but he had a look on his face which said: "What can I do?" The official was spot on. All of a sudden there is another shift of atmosphere in this game and Dele Alli's shot is deflected for a corner.

  18. RED CARD - Francis Coquelin

    Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

    Francis Coquelin is in trouble here and he's off. Second booking after bringing down Harry Kane. Senseless.

  19. Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal

    Mesut Ozil bringing a few party pieces to the occasion now. A sign of Arsenal's growing status?
