Tottenham vs Burnley LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction as Kane sends Spurs towards top four

43 mins: Burnley are finishing the first half well. Collins clips a ball into Cornet but he can’t control it and the offside flag goes up anyway. The visitors having a lot more of the ball now though.

Hojbjerg has it for Spurs. He sends a cross towards the back post but Pope claims ahead of Lucas. More frustrated build-up play from the hosts.

41 mins: Oh dear. Sanchez hooks a ball across the pitch for Sessegnon but it’s behind him and drifts well out of play. Very frustrating times for Tottenham. You could hear a pin drop inside the stadium at the moment. Arsenal supporters may be beginning to enjoy this.

Dejan Kulusevski is on the bench. You imagine we will see him in the second half if it stays like this. Even if he is ill.

39 mins: Back to the action as Spurs come forward. Dier clips a ball into the penalty area but McNeil hacks it clear for Burnley.

The visitors have dropped very deep again since that Cornet incident. It’s been a disciplined performance from The Clarets so far.

37 mins: Cornet is getting a patch put on above his right eye and a bandage wrapped around that. It looks like a nasty one. Still not sure what part of Sanchez’s body caught the Burnley striker but it has certainly left its mark.

Both managers discussing how to approach the end of this first half. Mike Jackson receiving some advice from player turned coach Ben Mee.

35 mins: Maxwel Cornet has gone down off the ball. Think he took a whack when Sanchez cleared the ball away but there’s nothing clear on the replay. There’s a bit of blood around the head of Cornet, though. Bizarre one.

Meanwhile, Conte is prowling the touchline. He needs to find a way to break down this stubborn Burnley defence.

33 mins: Spurs had 88 per cent possession in the opening 10 minutes. The last 10 minutes has been shared almost exactly equal. That is how much Burnley have grown into this game.

Spurs look to get back on top as they probe for a way through Burnley’s low block. No way through though! Burnley are frustrating the hosts.

31 mins: Emerson earns Tottenham a free-kick on the right touchline inside the Burnley half.

Son sends the free-kick into the penalty area and McNeil clears it away at the near post. Hojbjerg then gives the ball straight to Cornet and the Spurs fans send out an almighty moan.

29 mins: Great chance for Burnley! They cut open Spurs so easily and suddenly Maxwel Cornet is in behind. He lets the ball run across his body and fires an effort towards the near post which Lloris saves smartly!

Good stop from the Frenchman. Burnley beginning to get some joy.

27 mins: That was such an important header from Sessegnon as he leapt to get in front of McNeil at the back post. He actually headed it against McNeil and away from danger.

Are Burnley beginning to grow into the game? It was constant Tottenham pressure for 20 minutes but it’s a little more even now.

YELLOW! Connor Roberts goes in the book for kicking the ball away after fouling Sessegnon. Needless.

25 mins: A little lull in the game as Spurs struggle to find the gaps to open up this Burnley defence. And the visitors nick possession a couple of times before actually keeping hold of the ball!

Burnley pass it around for a minute or so and Lowton sends a cross into the middle which Dier heads clear.

Another cross then goes back in and Sessegnon gets a crucial head to it in front of McNeil! That would have been a free header. Decent chance for Burnley, that.
