Tottenham‘s run to the Carabao Cup final
Follow all the action as Tottenham Hotspur host Fulham in a hastily rearranged London derby in the Premier League this evening.
Parker sent out a strong starting eleven for Fulham’s FA Cup third round victory over west London rivals QPR as the club seek to maintain their newfound momentum. It was not quite an avalanche of points, but four draws in succession in the league still represented a marked improvement before an outbreak of Covid within the Cottagers’ squad. Spurs, meanwhile, still have an optimistic eye on the title race and victory tonight would see them move to within four points of leaders Manchester United. Their squad is well-rested, too, after a heavily rotated side defeated Marine in an FA Cup tie to remember last time out. Follow all the action live below:
Tottenham 1 – 1 Fulham
87 mins: Kamara gets in behind on the right hand side. He darts into the box and lays it off to Robinson. He takes a touch and then belts one at goal but Aurier gets in the way and blocks it.

63 mins: It’s all a little untidy in the Fulham final third as Spurs try to work the ball into the box and Fulham attempt to clear it. Neither team is able to get a good purchase on the ball until Kane chips one into the box for Son but it’s plucked out of the air by Areola.
