Alan Hutton finds space and tries to deliver a low cross, but it's hoofed cleared. Seconds later, Pavlychenko drills a low shot yards wide of the goal.
<b>FOUR MINUTES ADDED TIME</b>
Deja vu for Defoe! Played in again by Pavlyuchenko, this time the impressive Wayne Bridge slides into block his shot. Defoe has had a terrible afternoon.

An opening for Roman Pavlyuchenko. Gareth Bale's long throw bounces around in the West Ham box before arriving with the Russian, whose close-range effort is blocked.
Scott Parker is down in a heap. He raced back to clear as Bale looked to advance, but he clattered into the advertising boards. He looks good to continue.
Gallas looks to be back on his feet, but he is moving gingerly. The former Arsenal man has only just recovered from a hamstring injury.

A nervy moment for William Gallas at the back. Demba Ba turns and looks to muscle past the Frenchman, Gallas just about shadows the ball back to Gomes. But he looks to have hurt himself.
Lennon's cross, it's headed clear to Bale. The winger volley's into the ground and it drifts to Pavlyuchenko, who is offside.

Mark Noble wastes a fantastic opening for West Ham. Carlton Cole picks out the midfielder in space on the edge of the area, he works space for the shot and his outside-of-the-boot effort is yards wide.

<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> <b>Matthew Upson</b> is the fourth West Ham player in the book for sliding in late on Defoe as the striker looks to break.
Sandro has recovered sufficiently to have a shot on goal, he need not have bothered as it is well wide.
Signs of frustration just starting to creep into Tottenham's play. They are lacking ideas at the moment.
What a shot from Demba Ba. Out of nowhere the Ivorian drops the shoulder and lets fly, Gomes responds with an outstanding save. From the resulting corner, the goalkeeper is fouled.
Luka Modric has a go this time. Aaron Lennon pulls the ball back to Modric, his shot from 10 yards is blocked by Mark Noble and Rob Green can gather.
Tame penalty appeals from Spurs. Gareth Bale cuts in from the left and hits a shot on goal which strikes a defender. It would have been incredibly harsh, if it even struck an arm at all.
The striker atones for his error by clearing the cross.
Carlton Cole with a needless handball and it's a Tottenham set piece...
We've reached the hour mark and we're still goalless. Can either side break the deadlock?
Tottenham have not carried the same threat in the second half. West Ham are doing a very professional job.
Neat play from Parker and Jacobsen to find O'Neil. The former Portsmouth man is too slow in possession and Sandro manages to snatch the ball.
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> <b>Carlton Cole</b> is rightly cautioned for his dangerous tackle.
Sandro is slowly starting to climb to his feet, it has not been a pleasant start to the second half for him.
Sandro is down in a heap after a crunching tackle from Carlton Cole. The England striker catches the Brazilian on the shin with his studs showing. Very nasty.

Tottenham press again, Defoe and Bale both try and fire off shots from the edge of the box but they are crowded out.
Jermain Defoe wastes another glorious chance. Excellent play from Modric, who finds Defoe free inside the six-yard box. He takes a touch, but somehow Rob Green saves his shot. A great stop, but poor finishing.
The free kick is aimed at Sandro, but the cross is too high.
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> <b>Mark Noble</b> is in the book for a late challenge on Gareth Bale, and the Welshman is hurt. Free kick right by the corner flag...
Manuel da Costa appears to be struggling for the visitors. West Ham do have James Tomkins on the bench.
West Ham with an instant chance to take the lead. Carlton Cole into the Spurs are before shooting from a tight angle, Gomes punches the ball clear.
<b>SECOND HALF</b>
Very disturbing images of Sandro apparently feeling unwell. The Brazilian has just vomited on the pitch, not pretty.
The teams are out for the second half. I would be very surprised if this match ends goalless...

Carlton Cole will also be an unhappy man in the dressing room. He had a glorious chance to open the scoring when he was played through by Ba, but he could only find Gomes.
In addition, Defoe can also become the 20th player to reach the grand total of 100 Premier League goals.
A little stat for you courtesy of <i>Opta Joe</i>. Spurs striker Jermain Defoe has scored in four of his last six matches against West Ham. Defoe should have scored today, Spurs fans will still be scratching their heads wondering how he missed from three-yards out.
So far, so good for West Ham. They have just about held on to their clean sheet and are half way towards an impressive point.
<b>HALF TIME</b> Tottenham will be annoyed they have failed to open the scoring, although West Ham have also had their moments. An entertaining match so far.

Van der Vaarts curler is on target, but comfortably gathered by Rob Green.
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> <b>Scott Parker</b> is the first man in the book for a late lunge on Van der Vaart. No debating that one and a great chance for Spurs...
Vedran Corluka does very well to climb above Upson and head clear. West Ham regain possession, and Demba Ba has a shot on goal from a very narrow angle.
Scott Parker with a brave burst forward has earned a West Ham corner, their first...
Five minutes until the interval, can we find an opening goal before the break?
Aaron Lennon rattles the post! The England winger skips inside Jacobsen and his shot from just inside the box hammers the upright. The rebound falls to Jermain Defoe three-yards from, but he can only guide his effort wide. A poor, poor miss from Defoe, although it did come at him quickly.

Half an hour gone, Tottenham will be disappointed that they've failed to take the lead, but the best chance has fallen to Carlton Cole and West Ham.

Jermain Defoe is close to getting on the edge of another cross, but the ball squirms through to Gomes.
A slightly better spell from West Ham, but they still do not look entirely settled.
Manuel da Costa fouls Dawson from the cross, free kick to Tottenham.
A chance for West Ham from this weekend...
Tottenham are up in arms, Mark Noble is under pressure from Van der Vaart and when it looks like the Dutchman is about to steal possession, Noble tugs him back. Nothing given from the referee.
