    Danny Rose just managed to kick a cross against his standing foot which fired the ball out for a goal-kick.

    Exceptional.

    The players are coming back out.

    Either Wembley have great tumble dryers or they're wearing new kits.

    I probably would have tried to have a quick bubble bath, as well.

    The quote Disney, "it's frozen" out there.

    We are back under way.

    Lots of Spurs pressure but, bar the Lucas Moura poked shot, no real clear-cut chances.

    The HT chat might be, "should the ref have awarded a pen for the 'push' on Kane?'

    Or it might not.

    Hugo Lloris' suffers yet another one of his lapses in concentration and plays the ball 20 yards to Phil Bardsley, unintentionally of course.

    Bardsley delivers the ball on to the head of Ashley Barnes, who can't quite get on top it.

    What a blow that would have been.

    Young Oliver Skipp gets a head to Kieran Trippier's ball but his flick-on misses the feet of Lucas Moura.

    Huge chance at the other end though...

    What a fantastic break by Tottenham! Four passes from their half gets them a goalscoring opportunity but Lamela's touch lets him down. That would have been a brilliant goal.

    Despite all of Burnley's good work Tottenham just showed them their quality. This is a game they have to win to stay in the title race.

    Despite throwing in that bit of 'jeopardy'.. it's still 0-0.

    But Dele Alli was super close to connecting on the end of another delightful Harry Kane ball into the area.

    They continue to knock.

    Burnley's defence have been brilliant today, so far.

    I thought I'd type that.

    Wait...

    Robbie Brady goes for a spectacular scissor-kick but is penalised for dangerous play.

    Spurs take a 'quickie'. Harry Kane spreads the ball wide to Moussa Sissoko as they counter.

    The Frenchman spreads it to Erik Lamela in area,but Joe Hart reads the danger like he's reading a book for six year olds and smothers the ball.

    Burnley's defence are 'on it' so far. They get as tight on Harry Kane in the area as somebody pressed against a stranger at 8am... on a Monday... on the Circle line.

    Kane will have to do some maneuvering to get a shot away.

  15. Moura goes very closepublished at 19 mins

    Tottenham 0-0 Burnley

    Lucas Moura, the hero at the Nou Camp the other night, nearly scores another.

    The Brazilian is picked out by Erik Lamela's dinked ball into the area, but pokes his effort a width of a ruler wide.

    Yet again Burnley do enough to clear the ball from the area.

    It travels only as far as the edge of the area where Erik Lamela is lurking, but his strike, like Kane's earlier, is blocked before it can collect air molecules.

    The second corner has too much welly on it.

    A few seconds later keeper Joe Hart pumps the ball upfield and almost finds Ashley Barnes - that might have been the assist of the season.

    Now another corner... but this time for Tottenham!!

    Danny Rose is hugging, what looks like, Ashley Barnes in the area - cosy.

    Robbie Brady's corner-ball is cleared by Spurs but Burnley win their second corner moments later...

    I wonder which of the players on the pitch have already done their Christmas shopping?

    Anyway, Burnley earn their first corner too, after the ball comes of Danny Rose.

    It eventually falls into the path of Harry Kane, but his attempt at an 18-yard strike travels an inch before it's blocked by a Burnley boot.

    I'm sure it would have gone in Harry, mate.
