Tottenham have edged past Fulham to continue their great start to the season! Kane's close-range finish proved to be enough for the hosts, who had the better of Fulham all game. Mitrovic's late stunner for Fulham and Richarlison's bad luck threatened a nervy few minutes for the hosts, but they were able to see out the win.

Richarlison overcomes his disappointment at not scoring by heading for the corner flag and winning a throw-in for Tottenham. The hosts take it, Fulham can't get upfield, and that's that!

Tottenham may only be a goal ahead, but they've got things under control. Emerson buys a free-kick from Reed to relieve the pressure on the hosts.

NO GOAL! TOTTENHAM 2-1 FULHAM! Richarlison's goal is chalked off as he strayed offside in the build-up. It's a shame for him. He's been at the heart of Tottenham's positive play all game.

GOAL! TOTTENHAM 3-1 FULHAM! Richarlison finally puts the game to bed! Sessegnon races in behind Fulham's defence and puts the ball on a plate for the Brazilian, who slides in to finish and whips off his shirt in celebration. Hang on, VAR's checking the goal for offside...

If Fulham salvage a draw from this game, it'll be down to Mitrovic. The Fulham striker receives the ball outside the box, heads towards the D and unleashes a dipping effort that almost drops past Lloris. Tottenham's captain keeps it out, and Spurs deal with the corner.

Fulham finally get their first shot on target. Mitrovic shrugs off a few challenges to the right of the D and shoots for the top left corner of the net. Lloris gets his left hand to the shot to tip it out for a corner. It's inconsequential.

Kane knocks a pass into the path of Son down the left. Son bears down on the box and lays off to the Englishman, whose shot is blocked. Fulham deal with the initial corner, but Richarlison wins the ball back down the right and crosses for Dier, who's still forward and can't keep his effort down!

Tottenham have scored in each of their last 11 Premier League games now. Conte has turned them into a very good outfit, and Richarlison looks to be an excellent acquisition. Fulham need to find their talisman Mitrovic more to avoid defeat here. The Serbian had just nine touches in the first half.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Fulham
15:55 , admin
Hojbjerg's finely-taken goal is the difference between these two teams at the moment. Tottenham have been the much better side, having created a bevy of decent scoring chances and hitting the woodwork through Son. They're only one goal up though, and Fulham look capable of getting back into this game if Spurs aren't careful.

Son hits the woodwork! Kane stands still on the edge of the box and uses his telepathic understanding with Son to find him with a cheeky round-the-corner pass into the box.
