    Erik Lamela goes for goal from a free-kick marginally closer to the halfway line than it is to the goal, and Robert Sanchez collects comfortably.

    That was unbelievable, what a block that is! All he has to do is lift into the net, he cannot believe he hasn't scored - unbelievable play by Aldeweireld.

    Magnificent defending by Toby Alderweireld keeps Spurs in it!

    Brighton counter and Spurs are outnumbered but, with Hugo Lloris beaten, Aaron Connolly is denied a tap-in by Alderweireld's recovering slide tackle.

    How big a moment could that prove to be?

    Can Brighton hang on? They've looked so comfortable so far but Tottenham are going to have to throw everything at this in the final few minutes.

    Jose Mourinho, in case you were wondering, doesn't look happy at all.

    It's nicely worked by Tottenham, as Moussa Sissoko sends a dangerous cross into the box which is headed clear by Adam Webster.

    Webster's header hits Lewis Dunk and Spurs are actually claiming for a handball, but nothing is given.

    Paul Charles: Not having Kane is no excuse. We have some excellent talent on the pitch and have created absolutely nothing.

    Spurs are lucky to only be one down. They are easily a mid table team without Kane on the pitch.

    Leandro Trossard and Neal Maupay leave the field, Adam Lallana and Aaron Connolly come in.

    Great effort from both Trossard and Maupay tonight.

    Tottenham are playing with more urgency now. It's only taken them 75 minutes or so to decide they want to take something from this game.

    Graham Potter is readying more changes in anticipation of a difficult final period.

    Good play by Vinicius, opens his body, stops it with his right and hits it with his left. Brilliant save to his right-hand side by Sanchez.

    This is the liveliest we've seen Spurs all evening.

  10. GREAT SAVE!published at 75 mins

    Brighton 1-0 Tottenham

    A great stop by Robert Sanchez keeps Brighton ahead!

    Carlos Vinicius swivels just outside the penalty area and quickly unleashes a shot towards goal, but Sanchez flies across to push it to safety.

    That's Spurs' best attempt by a mile.

    That's not far away!

    Neal Maupay is first to meet Solly March's cross but sends his header just wide of the back post.

    Jose Mourinho responds with a change of his own. Erik Lamela is introduced and Tanguy Ndombele makes way.

  12. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 71 mins

    Brighton 1-0 Tottenham

    Neal Maupay joins Toby Alderweireld in the referee's bad books for a foul on Tanguy Ndombele.

    A change for Brighton now, as Dan Burn replaces Joel Veltman.

    Alexis Mac Allister is involved in everything at the minute.

    He gets a shove from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as he appeals for handball, after his shot hit a couple of Spurs bodies on the edge of the penalty area before trickling through to Hugo Lloris.

    The referee isn't interested in either event.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 67 mins

    Brighton 1-0 Tottenham

    Toby Alderweireld gets a yellow card with a needless late one on Alexis Mac Allister.

    Frustration beginning to creep in, perhaps.

    Francesca Gunn: As others say that United struggle without Bruno on the field, the same can be said when spurs don’t have Kane to play

    Neil Boughton: I wonder how much longer Jose will be in charge of Spurs? For me, he's taken them backwards. His style of football has been surpassed for years, I'm surprised he's still getting work!

    Simon Turner: Poor game from Gareth Bale...pale shadow of the force of nature he used to be.

    Neal Maupay plays Alexis Mac Allister into the box but the 22-year-old can only find the side-netting from a tight angle.

    Brighton 1-0 Tottenham

    Leandro Trossard finds Neal Maupay with a cross into the box, but the Brighton striker can't control it under pressure and it hits off his leg and goes out for a goal-kick.

    At the other end, Alexis Mac Allister's impressive performance continues as he gets back to regain possession for his side.

    Even though Vinicius has come on, Tottenham still don't seem to have much of an idea what to do in deep possession.

    That's Gareth Bale's uneventful evening over.

    Lucas Moura comes on in his place.

    Approaching the hour mark and there's been no significant improvement from Spurs, as Brighton continue to go about their business efficiently.

    Solly March steals the ball off Moussa Sissoko before the Spurs man can send a cross into the box.
