  1. YELLOW CARDpublished at 22 mins

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Dele Alli has been booked. No, it's not for diving.

    He is rightly cautioned for cynically bringing Collin Quaner's powerful run to an end.

    Son is excellent. The sheer control of ball and pace of turn meant he shrugged off his defender.

    He laid it on a plate for Kane.

  3. GREAT SAVE!published at 18 mins

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Tremendous by Jonas Lossl who denies Harry Kane inside the six-yard area after a super turn and pass by Son Heung-min.

    Moments later, Christian Eriksen has a free-kick which is deflected narrowly wide.

    Huddersfield are camped inside their own half.

    Huddersfield have settled OK, but they have to be careful.

    They have to be strong with their passes or they'll lose possession in difficult positions and Spurs will be onto them quickly.

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Fourth official update: No one has stepped forward from the crowd so Michael Jones has hobbled out to do the duties sitting on a chair.

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Eric Dier tries his luck from distance...and it's horribly wide. Huddersfield will be pleased with the start they have made. They're defending in numbers and Jonas Lossl has not had a serious save to make yet.

    Ed Franklin: Tannoy asks if there are any qualified referees at Wembley. Kevin Friend didn't put his hand up. #justsaying, external

  9. 'Frantic start'published at 15:12 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2018

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    The pace of the game has been frantic in these early stages.

    Tottenham have found their range in the past few minutes and Huddersfield need to make sure they don't get exposed too much.

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    If anyone at Wembley is a qualified referee...you're needed!

    Michael Jones was due to referee this game but injured his calf in the warm-up. Fourth official Kevin Friend has stepped up to take charge. It means there is no fourth official as it stands.

  11. Postpublished at 6 mins

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Great chance for Dele Alli to score his first goal since 2 January but he is unable to connect after Harry Kane fizzes the ball across the six yard area.

    Spurs are starting to get into their stride.

    Tottenham 0-0 Huddersfield

    Bright start by Huddersfield.

    Florent Hadergjonaj's low cross is flicked on by Steve Mounie into the Spurs area before Serge Aurier makes a vital interception to stop Rajiv van La Parra from connecting two yards out.

    You look at the quality that Tottenham have and know they are a top side. They want to apply more pressure on the teams above them.

    Today is a big one. Huddersfield are on a good run so it's going to be a game where both teams will want to attack.

    Huddersfield finally emerge from their dressing room and here come the teams.

    Hurry up Huddersfield. Harry Kane wants to get going. The Spurs team is lined up in the tunnel raring to go. There's no sign of the Terriers yet.

  18. VAR-free gamepublished at 14:52 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2018

    There's already one good thing about this fixture - it's a VAR-free match.

  19. 'Poch needs a trophy'published at 14:48 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2018

    For Mauricio Pochettino personally, he needs a trophy to kick on and to stop the question from being asked. It's one of those things. Once you have won one title you want to keep winning them.

    The winning argument is not going to go away. They need to win something. Finishing in the top four will be a huge achievement but it's not a trophy. Winning the FA Cup will be huge.

  20. Strong side for Spurspublished at 14:45 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2018

    Welcome to Wembley where the weather is a lot better than Wednesday night when Spurs beat Rochdale in the FA Cup.

    Today, in-form Tottenham host Huddersfield. The north London club haven't lost since they were beaten 4-1 by Man City in December.

    The good news for Mauricio Pochettino is that Jan Vertonghen is back and starts. Toby Alderweireld is still injured and he will miss Tottenham's match with Juventus next week.

    Earlier this season Tottenham beat Huddersfield 4-0 at the John Smith's stadium. Harry Kane scored two and yesterday David Wagner was asked if he is the best striker in Europe: "at the moment, I think he is. He is a fantastic striker. Unfortunately not in our team but he is in a fantastic team."
