Watford vs Tottenham Hotspur

And there is the referee's final whistle, and despite a spirited performance from the Championship side, Spurs just had too much for them in the end, and it was probably a fair result.

Dawson hoofs clear, and Watford's last chance looks sadly like it has disappeared.

Watford have a free kick centrally 40 yards out. Everyone is forward!

Another Spurs corner. This time on the left. And Spurs will try to keep it in the corner.

Excellent dribbling on the right by Lennon, who beats two players before winning a corner. There will be three minutes added on.

Watford free kick is swung in from the right, but it's straight down the goalkeeper's throat. Too easy.

Unlucky! Excellent turn and shot from Hoskins, just left of the penalty spot, which Gomes just holds.

Neat work from Lennon on the right, and he clips in a cross, which Bent nicks towards the goal but it's smothered by Loach.

The Hornets have a long throw from the right via Bromby, and it's into the mix in the middle, but bounces harmlessly out of play, and Gomes has a goal kick.

The Spurs fans now in full voice around Vicarage Road.

Bent tries to break through but it's a foul, and Watford again launch the ball forward in a desperate bid for the equaliser.

Spurs win a corner on the right, which Scott Loach comes for and gathers neatly, then hoofs upfield.

Jobi McAnuff is being replaced by Will Hoskins, as Watford bring on another fresh set of legs with which to attack their visitors.

John-Joe O'Toole pounces on a loose ball on the edge of the Spurs area, but doesn't connect well, and Gomes gathers.

Watford know they need to risk things a bit now, and are pushing on a bit.

Floated in, Gomes flaps, but it's enough, just about...

Smith twists and turns down the right, and wins a corner off Dawson.

Watford making a change. John-Joe O'Toole, attacking midfielder, replacing Ross Jenkins, who gave away the penalty in the first half.

Watford have a throw down the right, but it's out for a Spurs goal kick.

Darren Bent shoots from the right side of the area, and although he slips as he strikes the ball, somehow Loach misses it at his near post, and the ball sneaks in. Unfortunate, but the keeper should really have done better.

GOAL! Tottenham.

Spurs starting to turn the screw somewhat, here.

Corner chipped in, and a header from Woodgate is cleared off the line by Lee Williamson.

The ball is swung through from the defence for Bent to run on to, and it's cleared for a corner by Doyley.

Assou-Ekotto slides the ball across the face of goal, but three Spurs players all miss a simple tap-in down only to the length of their studs.
