    Van Hecke doubles his and Tottenham's tally, pouncing from close range after his initial header had been saved by Henderson from a corner. Relentless pressure finally yields a second goal as Palace's ten men are put to the sword at 2-0.

    Still all one-way traffic at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Henderson has had to be busy, denying Marmoush and Solanke in quick succession, while further efforts from Porro, Fernandes and van Hecke have all come to nothing as Palace's ten men keep throwing bodies in the way. Mingueza has also picked up a booking for persistent fouling as Spurs' shot count climbs towards 20 with Palace yet to register an attempt of their own since the break.

    Tottenham have picked up straight where they left off after the break, peppering Palace's goal from inside the box - Fernandes and Tel both had efforts blocked and van Hecke headed a corner wide. Four more shots added to their tally since half-time shows the pressure continuing, with Palace's ten men still restricted to defending rather than threatening at the other end.

    Half-time: Tottenham 1-0 Crystal Palace. Palace's afternoon was derailed early when Mateta saw red after a VAR review in the 13th minute, and although Gray himself picked up a yellow soon after, it was the Spurs man who made the breakthrough, heading in Kudus's corner delivery on 25 minutes. From there Tottenham have controlled things with over 77% possession and an 8-1 edge in shots, though Palace's ten men have held firm since the goal despite racking up more fouls than their opponents. Spurs go in deservedly ahead but will know the game isn't out of sight yet.

    Tottenham have continued to dominate the extra man against ten-man Palace, adding three more corners and a couple of efforts without adding to the scoreline. Robertson forced a save from Henderson and Marmoush had a shot blocked, while Palace's resistance has mostly come through fouls rather than any real attacking threat. It's 1-0 at the break, with Spurs well on top in possession and chances created.

    Tottenham take the lead their dominance deserved - Archie Gray, who could easily have been off himself after his earlier booking, heads home Mohammed Kudus's corner delivery from close range. With a man advantage and over 78% possession, the hosts are firmly in control against ten-man Palace.

    Huge moment early on - Jean-Philippe Mateta's card is upgraded to red by VAR after a foul, leaving Crystal Palace down to ten men inside the first quarter of an hour. Tottenham will fancy their chances against the extra man, though Archie Gray has since been booked himself for a bad foul.
