60: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
The pace has really picked up here, not that it's made a difference to the quality in the final third, but nonetheless, this is a bonus.
66: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
Mauricio Pochettino has seen enough from Harry Winks and brings on Lucas Moura.
That's a strange one because it has been Winks that has shown some composure on the ball and got them into the game. Harry Kane survives.
67: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
Liverpool find some space as they work forward and win a corner from Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross.
The defender trots over to take the corner and once again can't beat the front man. The quality of the set-pieces tonight has been very poor.
68: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
Spurs are operating with Christian Eriksen and Moussa Sissoko in midfield, which is allowing Sadio Mane to come inside and attack Tottenham.
On his latest surge, Mane begins a move as Liverpool work a pass to James Milner, who has Hugo Lloris beaten with a shot, but his dragged left-footed effort is just the wrong side of the post.
69: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
There's appeal for a penalty from the Tottenham supporters but the players don't blink as a cross is cleared by Joel Matip.
71: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
Liverpool break forward and Mohamed Salah is in space on the right from Alisson's pass from the back. He tries to prod the ball to Divock Origi, but Sadio Mane collects on the edge of the box, skips past a challenge but runs into Toby Alderweireld.
Spurs with Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier struggling with muscle injuries.
73: Tottenham 0-1 Liverpool
Spurs break forward with great pace through Son Heung-min, he lays the ball to his left and Dele Alli tries to curl an effort beyond Alisson, but the goalkeeper is equal to it.
