Live updates of AZ Alkmaar v Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League Round of 16 from our reporter Dan Bennett at the AFAS stadium.
Thanks for following our live blog!
Odobert heads over the bar and then the final whistle is blown!
They will have to overturn a one-goal deficit in the second leg.
More bad news for Spurs. On his return to action, Solanke has had to go off injured and is replaced by Dane Scarlett.
He jumped for the ball with the goalkeeper and took a heavy fall afterwards.
Spurs will be hoping it’s nothing serious but the forward is hobbling towards the bench down on the touchline in front of me.
Three minutes of added time left for Spurs to find a leveller.
Solanke is currently down receiving treatment after a challenge by the goalkeeper though.
AZ goalkeeper Owusu-Odoro beats away a stinging strike from Odobert as Spurs look to salvage a draw.
The home side are not content with a one-goal lead and instead of defending it, are going for a second. Some dangerous play down the left has just resulted in a corner.
The home side have responded to Spurs’ triple change by making one of their own.
Poku is replaced by Belic, Parrott goes off in place of van Duijn and Buurmeester comes off for Sadiq.
Spurs are moving it from side to side but have had absolutely no penetration through an organised AZ Alkmaar. It’s looking unlikely they will find a way back into the game at this rate.
Postecoglou has made a triple substitution in an attempt to change things.
Solanke makes his return from injury with Porro and Sarr the other players to come on.
Son, Maddison and Udogie are all replaced.
Poku has been booked for a foul out on Spurs’ right-hand side and Maddison has a chance to whip one in but it comes to nothing.
Another injury blow for AZ with the substitute Kasius, who came on for Lahdo after he was injured, now having to go off himself. Smit is on in his place.
An ambitious effort for the AZ defender from distance. His low strike deflects wide of the goal.
Bentancur goes into the book for a foul on Parrott. His Spurs team-mates are having to calm him down afterwards with the midfielder not at all happy with the decision.
Spurs give it away at the back, not for the first time this game, which presents Poku with the chance to have a go from distance but he shoots over.
Tottenham have been really sloppy today.
The ball breaks for Poku in the area but his low shot at goal is palmed away by the Spurs keeper.
Odobert plays it to Son out on the left, who drives inside and shoots high and wide with his right foot.
Bergvall drives forward and curls a shot just wide of the post. A decent effort.
Son has gone up top with Tel off, and Odobert is playing on the left.
We’re back underway in Alkmaar.
It’s Mathys Tel who has been replaced by Odobert. The striker was very quiet in the first half.
Both teams have re-entered the field with play set to resume shortly.
Wilson Odobert is being put through his paces at half-time and looks set to come on.
Spurs trail at the break after Lucas Bergvall’s own goal.
The main story is how flat Spurs have been however. They are lacking energy and have created very little. Alkmaar have been the much more dangerous side.
A goalmouth scramble ensues following the corner with the home side being denied what must have been four or five times as Spurs eventually manage to clear.
