Play by play
- 92'
FULL-TIME: Berbatov and Keane put a very lacklustre Fulham to the sword and Spurs cruise through to the quarter-finals. If the year ended in a 1 you really might/could/definitely would fancy them for the cup this year.
- 90'
Meanwhile, Montella is shown the red card for a tussle with a bemused looking Keane who receives a yellow.
- 88'
GOAL - Berbatov seals a great win for Spurs and completes a nmiserable day for Fulham. Faced with a Fulham defence who seem to think the game is over (which, to be fair it is) Keane lays it off to his strike partner who lifts the ball over Lastukva's head for his second.
- 86'
Good covering from Dawson to stop Davis getting a sight on goal as he came through the middle.
- 85'
Collins John is fouled by Gardner close to the Spurs penalty area but it doesn't really matter as Fulham have been well beaten today. Robinson rises to confidently pluck the ball from the air when the free-kick is taken.
- 84'
Quedrue doesn't hear the cry of the better-placed Zat Knight and wastes the corner when it comes over.
- 84'
Montella hit's a free-kick towards the Spurs goal which Ghaly heads behind for a corner.
- 82'
Lennon comes off for Hossam Ghaly. Oh, and Spurs do nothing with the corner.
- 81'
Keane almost gets his hat-trick as the ball comes through to him after Lennon dummies it. His easiest chance of the day, but the Irishman hits his shot straight at Lastuvka who parries it behind for a corner.
- 79'
Montella and Quedrue execute a nice one-two but the striker's chipped shot is never going to trouble Robinson.
- 78'
Bouba Diop looks like he crying. The Spurs fans cerainly aren't although their boasts of going to Wembley are possibly inaccurate. The might get Chelsea or Man Und in the next round.
- 75'
GOAL - Which they are not going to get. Berbatov cracks a shot off the post with his right foot before dispatching the rebound with his left. Goodbye Fulham.
- 75'
Free-kick to Fulham in their own half. They will have to come up with something very soon if they are to force a replay from this tie.
- 74'
A fantastic ball from Bouba Diop through the middle to Collins John who wastefully hits the effort well ove rthe Spurs crossbar. Fulham's best chance of the game.
- 72'
Berbatov is on for Mido.
- 71'
Zat Knight gets on the end of it this time and the ball just catches the end of his toe. Goal-kick to Spurs
- 70'
A fine long range shot from Volz brings an equally fine one handed save from Robinson. Corner to Fulham. When it comes over Robinson flaps at it before Tainio heads behind for another corner.
- 67'
GOAL - In an almost carbon copy of their first goal, Spurs double their lead. Robinson's high ball up to Mido is flicked in to the path of Keane who blasts it home. Game over now surely.
- 67'
Radzinski makes way for Clinton Dempsey.
- 66'
Gardner appeared to trip Volz in the penalty area but the ref didn't see nuffink.
- 65'
Fulham continue to pressure Spurs without threatening them massively. Spurs look reasonably comfortable as they deal with what Chris Coleman's side have to offer.
- 64'
The ball in is poor though and Fulham now go on the attack. Quedrue puts a cross in from the left but Robinson is first to it.
- 63'
Lennon wins the visitors a corner and will take it.
- 62'
Montella's first touch is a half-hearted shot which Spurs block easily enough.
- 61'
Vincenzo Montella comes on for Heidar Helguson and Collins John for Brian McBride.
