FULL-TIME!
After cup final disappointment, Gareth Bale's eighth career hat-trick and a late Heung-Min Son strike saw Tottenham ease past already-relegated Sheffield United 4-0 on Sunday evening. The Welshman was on scintillating form to make it eight goals in his last eight Premier League games as he lifts Spurs into fifth on 56 points, one point ahead of London rivals West Ham who take on Burnley on Monday night.

BIG MISS! Reguilon is slipped through in plenty of space in the box, but his shot flies well wide. That was poor.

Bergwijn's cross looking for Kane is tipped away by Ramsdale to knock the striker off his stride. Ramsdale has had a very busy evening.

CHANCE! Kane has not been at his sharpest this evening. He picks the ball up and fires wide in loads of space. He was miles offside anyway it turns out.

Sheff Utd are still giving this a go. Burke breaks free down the right and squares it looking for McGoldrick but he is well behind play and it's cleared for a Sheff Utd corner which comes to nothing.

SUB! Lamela comes on for Alli.

GOAL!!! It's 4-0 and it's Son who gets on the scoresheet! Alli intercepts Norwood and Bergwijn lays it off to Son. He cuts in and curls a brilliant right-footed strike into Ramsdale's top left corner! Exceptional from Son. That's his 21st goal of the season.

GOAL!! He's done it! It's a hat-trick for Bale! His first in English football since 2012. Aurier cuts in towards the box and tees up the Welsman before he hits it first-time into the bottom corner for his eighth career hat-trick!

Bale's free-kick from around 30-yards out moves a bit in the air but Ramsdale can catch it comfortably. He perhaps should have elected to cross it there, but he is looking to make it a hat-trick lets not forget.
65'
SHOT! That's better! Lloris is tested for the first time. Norwood's shot from the edge of the box. in plenty of space, is caught by the France goalkeeper.
63'
Tottenham look to have put this game beyond doubt. For all of Sheffield United's improved possession in the second half, they have not fashioned out any goalscoring opportunities and look toothless up top right now. Can they turn this around? Spurs have had an easy night so far.
60'
GOAL! Bale scores again!! Son sprints down the right before he lays the ball off to Bale in acres of space as he sprints down on goal before smashing the shot past Ramsdale into the top corner! Spurs extend their lead!

Sheff Utd's substitutes at half-time appears to have given them all a bit of a lift and they are the ones being proactive. Spurs, however, know they can be extremely effective on the counter-attack when Kane, Son and Bale are all on the pitch at the same time.
