Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the Premier League clash between Brighton and Tottenham. Well, this will be an interesting one. Coming into the game off the back of THAT 7-2 thrashing at the hands of German champions Bayern Munich, Mauricio Pochettino simply must get a response from his fragile players. Spurs haven't won on the road in the league since January - now would be a reasonably good time to do just that.

Kane shoots over! Ironic cheers from the Brighton supporters as Kane blasts the ball over the bar. It's fantastic play from Lamela who drives forward centrally before pulling it wide to the Englishman. Kane has a lot of goal to aim for but he leans back and blasts it over.
69'
Miss! When it's not your day... Sissoko drops his shoulder, gets to the by-line and cuts the ball back into a crowded penalty area. It falls for Son who then misses his kick with the goal gaping.
66'
The pressure mounts on Poch... this has gone from bad to worse.
65'
GOAL! Brighton 3-0 Tottenham: Aaron Connolly, remember the name! The young Irishman has his second goal of the game! And what a special goal. He cuts in from the left past Alderweireld, opens up his body and curls it past a helpless Gazzaniga! Game over!

Off the bar! It's a clever free-kick from Gross, who almost catches Gazzaniga out at his near post. He curls a shot over the wall, the Spurs goalkeeper is beaten but it bounces off the woodwork and over the bar.
