Play by play
- 92'
<b>FULL-TIME</b>. Gareth Bale gave Spurs something to smile about, but it was all over in the first 15 mins. Gomes' red card put them in a tricky position and it was 4-0 at half-time. Bale's second half hat-trick was incredible. But it came too late.
- 91'
Stunning from the Welshman, but has it come too late?
- 90'
Great run from Lennon and Bale hammers it into the same corner! Surely not!

- 89'
He beats Zanetti for pace and hits it across Julio Cesar into the far post. 4-2!

- 86'
Hutton cuts inside and makes a chance for himself. The ball shoots away from him, but he can hit it with his left foot. A curling effort flies over.
- 86'
Spurs want off the pitch as much as Inter do.
- 85'
The Oles are going up around the ground as Spurs take control of the ball. But they are just running down the clock.
- 85'
Bale whips in a free-kick, but Julio Cesar claims with ease.
- 84'
Santon does really well, but his ball across is sliced clear. Bale on the charge again and Keane can't keep up with him when the pass comes.
- 83'
Coutinho pops up again - I thought he was a little quiet - as he drills a shot in from 25 yards out. It just rises over the bar.
- 81'
Ekotto slides the ball across to Bale. But that was good defending to cut out the cross and Spurs get a corner. Cleared by Lucio though.
- 80'
Redknapp is likely to be happy just not to concede again and wants to give a rest to some of his players. No doubt that's why Modric was hauled off early on.
- 79'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Huddlestone off, Palacios on. Not exactly attacking.
- 78'
This has the look of a training exercise again.
- 77'
There are an awful lot of Inter players between Spurs' attacking players and the goal. Lennon tries to break through, but Crouch is not there anymore.
- 75'
Cordoba is slotting into defence, so it's now a 5-4-1.
- 74'
Biabiany looks a good young talent. It's easy to see why the club were able to let Balotelli go.
- 73'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Biabiany off, Cordoba on. Inter look to shut up shop.
- 73'
Jenas ignores a good run by Keane, but Spurs' full-backs are not getting forward as much as they should be doing if they want to get back into the game.
- 73'
Julio Cesar gets a kick, but he hasn't had a save to make.
- 72'
Eto'o runs at the defence, but that is a wonderful tackle back by Jenas who showed great timing to hook the ball away and under control.
- 71'
It really is hard to think what Spurs can do. The game is just petering out...
