LIVE: Posh vs Spurs U21

Posh could make it 4, Ephron wins the race and gets to the ball on the left edge of the box ahead of the keeper, looks to get the ball across to Ricky in the middle but there is a lot of Spurs bodies in there to make the block.

Spurs still fruitlessly pushing for another goal. Posh are just sitting back in their shape and winning the ball when Spurs try to break the lines.

Lyons-Foster off for Dante Cassanova

Abbott off for Tyrell Ashcroft.

O’Brien Brady with a curling ball into the box on his left foot, Ricky heads it at goal and Keeley has to push it wide for a corner.

Joel Randall off for a debut for Donay O’Brien-Brady

Spurs are back on top now but they’re not really creating chances unless Posh gift them to them.

Rio Kyerematen on for Nile John
