13': A cross to Pino who shoots, it deflects off Gvradiol and goes wide. They take the corner and Richards's header goes over but it took a deflection off Guéhi and should have been another corner, refs missed it

20': Aït-Nouri fires from a tight angle and only hits the side netting.

32': GOAL MAN CITY!! Foden splits the defense with a brilliant backheel to find Antoine Semenyo who fires quickly and hits the bottom corner!

40': GOAL MAN CITY!! Omar Marmoush scores the second! He gets a pass over the top, lets it run across him and then scores a great turning shot! Henderson just got a foot to it but it wasn't enough!

43': SAVE!! Great header from Gvardiol, Henderson somehow keeps it out! Play stays alive but the second shot goes off-target.

MATCH EVENTS

1': We're off!

3': Oooh... I think Matsuki might have gotten away with a big foul on the box on Strelec there

5': GOAL MIDDLESBROUGH!! Riley McGree fires from distance, goes for placement instead of power and perfectly picks out the final corner!

10': Whittaker fires from wide and hits the side netting.

12': Manning perfectly picks out Ross Stewart right in front of goal but Stewart stretches out and puts it back across goal and past the post.

13': Riley McGree lands on Charles's foot

27': Brittain with a shot on target through traffic, Peretz down with time to hold it safely

32': SAVE! Brittain's shot is going off target but redirected by Fry, Peretz switches momentum quickly to make the stop.

37': Nathan Wood into the book for some reason?

38': Luke Ayling carded for pushing over Scienza, a little soft but Ayling seems to be trying to argue himself into a second, stop talking dummy. Now he's arguing with Harwood-Bellis. Getting ugly

40': Now the managers are arguing, especially Eckert, both lucky to not receive cards as well

41': How did Harwood-Bellis miss that? Free kick into the box and just doesn't connect with his head, comes off Ayling instead for a near-own goal and a corner.

42': Azaz hits it through the cross and Brynn just barely down in time to make the save!

45+1': GOAL SOUTHAMPTON!! Manning with a sharp close-range volley that Brynn just saves, but Ross Stewart jumps up high and bundles it over the line with a downward header!

HT Southampton 1-1 Middlesbrough [1-1 on agg.] Still drawn after three halves, but it's getting pretty heated in there.

---

46': We're back! Incidentally, Ayling is saying that Harwood-Bellis said something discriminatory at him during that big argument at the 38th minute

51': Did Matsuki handle the ball?? Definitely hit his hand, he was trying to pull it back against his shoulder, regardless ref doesn't give that one either

56': Finn Azaz slides through Targett, did get the ball but took out the man too and gets a card

59': So close!! Ayling deflects a shot just wide of the near post, wrong foots his own keeper and lucky to not score the own goal there.

63': Scienza goes down in the box! But no penalty! It could have gone either way but Madley decided Scienza went down too easily.

66': Southampton substitution: Flynn Downes on for Kuryu Matsuki

73': Middlesbrough substitution: Alan Browne on for Tommy Conway who is limping off

79': Adilson Malanda carded for an ugly tackle on Azaz

81': The hell just happened? Aidan Morris just got into it with the ballboy and the Southampton bench ran out to get on Morris

83': Middlesbrough substitution: Leo Castledine on for David Strelec

85': Southampton double sub: Cyle Larin and Samuel Edozie on for Ross Stewart and Léo Scienza

90+1': SAVE! Larin denied by Brynn who pushes away the shot.

90+2': Did Fry take out Larin in the box?? Ref says no. Again, too soft. Fry looks pretty hurt after the collision though.

FT Southampton 1-1 Middlesbrough [1-1 on agg.] Time for extra time!

91': We're back again!

92': Callum Brittain pushes over Edozie

100': SAVE!!! Edozie's shot takes a wicked deflection but Brynn still gets it away! Rebound's just sitting there but Harwood-Bellis can't get there in time!

107': Pause in the game as it seems Edozie landed badly on his shoulder

114': Azaz tries to make something happen but his shot takes a deflection and claimed by Brynn at the near post.

116': GOAL SOUTHAMPTON!! How?!! Shea Charles puts in a, is it a cross? Whatever it was, it catches everyone off guard, Fry whiffs on the clearing header and it tucks in the far side!

119': Southampton double sub: Cam Bragg and Welington on for Samuel Edozie and Caspar Jander

119': Middlesbrough substitution: Sontje Hansen on for Luke Ayling

120+1': Brittain tries a desperate long-distance volley that goes nowhere near the mark

MATCH EVENTS

1': We're off!

19': No shots yet but Tel just tried to dig out a ball from his own touchline into his own box, that could have been a perfectly terrible move but he got it to a teammate who cleared it.

21': SAVE! Aaronson picks out Rodon whose header just nearly gets into the bottom corner but Kinský just stops it. Half the ball was over the line but Kinský kept it from going further.

25': Tel with a great run through three defenders but the shot is deflected over for a corner.

32': Richarlison with the shot! Rodon gets a touch to it though and it makes for an easy save.

33': BLOCKED ON THE LINE! Spurs awarded a penalty corner because Darlow held the ball too long, Porro's shot makes it through traffic but it's cleared on the line! Gallagher tries the rebound but it deflects off his own teammate for a goal kick.

36': Big chance for Palhinha! He powers his way to find a tiny bit of space but puts it over from close range under pressure.

39': Bentancur with a powerful header on a Spurs corner but he nods it past the far post.

41': Kevin Danso charges into Aaronson to stop the counter

45+1': DCL pulled down by Udogie in the box??? Flag goes up so no... or was it? Looks like we're looking at VAR... and they confirm, so we'll never know if that was a foul

HT Tottenham Hotspur 0-0 Leeds United No goals yet. Spurs fate still in their own hands.

---

46': We're back!

46': We're stopped 15 seconds into starting after a clash of heads... or was it? It looks more like Richarlison swung his arm into Bijol's head in midair and went down holding his head to cover it up.

51': GOAL TOTTENHAM!! And my goodness what a goal! An absolute rocket from outside the box, perfectly placed into the top far corner!

55': Leeds substitution: Sebastiaan Bornauw on for Pascal Struijk

58': Kolo Muani cuts it back to Richarlison but Richarlison fires over! Cutback was a little strong tbf

61': Daniel James with a bad speculative shot from way out.

63': Leeds double sub: Lukas Nmecha and Wilfried Gnonto on for Brenden Aaronson and Daniel James

66': João Palhinha carded for going in with both feet on Nmecha

69': Uh-oh, we stop the game because Tel put a high foot against Ampadu's head... we're going to VAR....

72': PENALTY FOR LEEDS!!! There really couldn't be any other decision there.

74': GOAL LEEDS!! Keeper goes the right way but Dominic Calvert-Lewin gets it past his fingertips.

79': Joe Rodon pulls down Tel by the shirt

81': Tottenham substitution: Lucas Bergvall on for Rodrigo Bentancur

82': Pedro Porro carded for landing on Justin's heel, Porro's legs got swept in the collision and he seems a bit injured as well

85': Tottenham double sub: James Maddison and Djed Spence on for Mathys Tel and Destiny Udogie

90': Thirteen minutes of stoppage time?!!

90+3': Bergvall sends a looping effort off target.

90+3': Leeds substitution: Sean Longstaff on for Ao Tanaka

90+5': Roberto de Zerbi carded for interfering with play?

90+8': OH MY GOODNESS WHAT A SAVE!! Gnonto nutmets Danso to find Longstaff who fires, just has to beat Kinský but Kinský just barely deflects it into the crossbar!

90+13': Spurs screaming for penalty!! Did Nmecha bring down Maddison??? Ref didn't give it.... VAR looking... he did get a toe on the ball, I think... confirmed, no pen, just a corner.

FT Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Leeds United Will Spurs live to Tel?
