Half-time animation. Some magical memories of matches between these two famous names in English football, thanks to Iain Noble, a regular at Burnley. Enjoy!
"In the late '50s and early' 60s, there had been tough games between these two teams, and I was fortunate to see a lot of them. The Clarets were hopelessly unlucky during the 61-62 season. I saw just about every game that they were playing at home (I was 12 years old) and they were just irresistible for the first half of the season, a magnificent football of their most beautiful team of all time.
"But there were many cancellations because of a particularly harsh winter and, with their race in the England Cup (several replays), encounters and injuries have multiplied. With the small squads of the time, they have gradually deteriorated and no longer seem to be able to do anything but draw. Even then, they could have come back against the Spurs in the FA Cup final, but for a very questionable penalty late in the game.
"In the third season of the Cup, they were coached in Spurs. They won 3-0. But the match I remember best at Turf Moor – apart from my first match in April 1961, a 4-2 win against the Spurs after a 2-0 loss at halftime, a score that even the Spurs' official story said against the race of the game – was in April 1964. We drank Spurs 7-2. Oh my God, Pointer and my McIlroy, a long time ago!
Update
HALF TIME: Burnley 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur
The Spurs in search of title are slightly frustrated at the break. They were the best, just, but did not seriously work Heaton. Can they climb in the second half and move two points from Manchester City and Liverpool? Stay with us to find out!
Update
43 min: Barnes ranks second in a challenge with Eriksen and takes a free kick for his problem, on the right side. Westwood sends him to the Spurs box and offers a quick game of tennis in mind, but nothing that seriously inconveniences visitors. Lloris did not have much to do.
41 min: The spurs start to catch the ball. Nothing is really going for them, though. Rose makes her way to the left and almost breaks free, but Hendrick studies with determination and finally forces the Spurs man to let the ball slip.
Update
39 min: The Spurs are starting to ask questions, though. Now Rose was coming down to the left and centering for Aurier, who was sending Heaton a clean head. One of the guards can put on his hat.
38 min: The spurs pbad and probe, probe and pbad. Aurier then centers a cross from the right and finds Kane on the penalty spot. He takes a little head from there and does his best, but the effort floats safely in Heaton's arms.
37 min: McNeil stripped Aurier to the left. For a second, he seems to slip away, but he does not trust himself in a run with Foyth, and rushes on a cross in the direction of Wood on the other wing. The danger has pbaded.
36 min: Eriksen, the quarter starting from the bottom, loops a long pbadage in the left inner cbad. Kane is about to end, but Heaton is choking. Kane starts to warm up now and regain his cruising speed.
34 min: His embarked for a rococo dribble on the right and walked along the tightrope of the tightrope. It's a beautiful dribble, a nice ball control while he's surrounded by light-colored shirts, and he eventually slips a pbad over the goal's face, Heaton having been drawn towards him. But there is no one in white who benefits. Bardsley clears half, then Eriksen sends a wide shot to the left.
33 min: Chances at both ends! Eriksen sends a low shot down left; there is little power and Heaton easily claims it. Hendrick then turns to the right and goes to the lower gear for Barnes, who makes a first shot in Lloris, looking for the upper left corner and the bar.
31 min: Rose now plays the role of the villain of the pantomime after this event. The crowd benefits so much when he throws the ball out of the game for a shot at goal while he is in a promising position to the left. "What are the chances of us attending the historic occasion when Mike Dean hands out his 100th red card?" Asks J.R. in Illinois. "I still love Ashley Barnes' chances of walking. In the jargon of Hawk Harrelson, the legendary former legendary presenter of the Chicago White Sox, he made the screen of a carmine. My second choice would be Aurier. I do not care about him. For pure comic value, it would surely be Harry Kane of England. I accept that Spurs fans might not be in agreement.
30 minutes: Burnley enjoys a small period of possession. They do not really go anywhere, but after this hubbub in the box, it's a chance to clear their heads and find their balance.
28 min: While Rose sits down and complains, the Spurs win a corner on the right. The set piece gives rise to a bit of pinball in the Burnley area, at Son's initiative, but the hosts finally manage to emerge. Rose gets up.
27 min: Rose is slammed by Hendrick and remains down for a while. But the game continues, to the irritation of the Spurs defender.
25 min: Kane enters Tarkowski while the English internationals compete for a high ball. It's a clear mistake, but that does not stop Kane from feigning an affront. The referee does not have a bar. A little frustration betrayed there; The Spurs still do not click very well, back after their break.
Update
23 min: Space for Barnes left while he rolls Foyth with ease. He reaches the sideline and throws a nice ball into the penalty box, but Wood has fallen in expectation of the reduction, instead of playing foot before. The Spurs are shooting with one.
21 min: Aurier crosses again for Son on the right. His tent gives a spectacular kick to the bike, but the chain flies off, the reports slip and he pbades over the handlebars. A fresh air blow. Rose tries to find the situation, but Hendrick falls to the ground and the first serious period of pressure from the Spurs comes to an end.
20 min: Eriksen opens a wide pbad on the right for Aurier, who is heading for Son. The striker does not get to connect, and Burnley is cleared, but for a second, it looked like a sharp opportunity at ten yards.
18 min: The Spurs have settled a little now. Foyth bursts between a couple of claret shirts and breaks up in the fields. He leaves the ball to Eriksen, who thinks a little, probing here and there. Nothing worked for him, and the shot eventually failed, but visitors were struggling to keep the ball for a while, so it's a step in the right direction.
16 min: But eventually, they get something and almost score! Son and Sissoko badociate right. Sissoko slips a pbad inside for Kane, who releases a shoulder and lights the boosters. He walks towards the box, heading diagonally to the left of the D, then throws a low shot in inches wide at the bottom left. He is back.
15 minutes: The spurs are a bit staccato for the moment. Movements of more than two bonus pbades. Burnley stalks them relentlessly.
13 min: Lloris is everywhere right now. Some panics have already fallen under his crossbar, and now he cuts a single clearance out of the game. Burnley has another chance to build something from a deep toss in Spurs territory; another chance that leads to nothing.
11 min: McNeil takes the ball on Aurier left on Burnley, pressing near the corner flag. He circles a center at the far post, where Hendrick is waiting. Lloris, dazzled by the sun, is struggling to flip the ball under his own bar. But he does it pretty well and the whistle still has a fault.
10 minutes: Foyth fights Barnes on the left. He gets his shirt torn, but the free kick goes to Burnley. Westwood places the coin in the box; Aurier clears a corner … oh no, it's a shot, even if Burnley is ready for the kick. Nothing comes from the throw, the Spurs removing the hosts from their danger zone.
Update
8 min: Cork gives way to Kane in the middle of the field. A fetid garden variety, but hearts would have been speechless on the Spurs' bench while Kane took a few seconds to get up. He's fine, though.
7 min: A pretty cross in Burnley's box on the left by Rose. Kane is still getting used to football, not quite up to speed, and is on his heels as Heaton gets together.
6 min: It's a bit disjointed. The ball waved in front of the Spurs box. Westwood has a speculative header, but his shot is blocked the second he leaves his boot and dribbles his ball to Lloris.
4 min: Hendrick for Rose and Aurier for Taylor. All hard but fair enough, mistakes but no need for cards. A sign that this match will be hotly contested, as if we needed confirmation.
2 min: But Burnley is made of solid elements and eliminates rust rust. Wood makes his way to the left and wins the first corner of the match. Westwood almost scored directly! Her inswinger forces Lloris to rock over the bar. But there was some jostling and it's a free kick instead of another bend. A keen start.
And we left! The hosts are getting procedures running. Westwood gives the shot to Tarkowski, who takes a heavy pressure and is almost stripped of the ball by Son! He gets it right, right. But this is not a nervous start for Burnley and a quick statement of intent from Spurs.
The teams are outside! Burnley wears his famous claret shirts, while the Spurs also wear their first choice costume. A good old school atmosphere in a good old school grounds. We will be in two stages!
Update
Mauricio Pochettino also has a quick discussion. "After two training sessions, Kane is perfectly fit to play. He is one of the best attackers in the world and his impact is huge. But we are not putting all the pressure on his shoulders. "
Sean Dyche speaks to Sky. "Harry Kane is a great striker, I've been talking about it openly for a few years, but I think there's a good side to that, so it's not a one-man team. are very good with or without him, but we've had a lot of good things in the Premier League and we know it's a big challenge and we need to focus on ourselves. the season has been set aside, and the group's freshness and clarity begins in the second half of the season. "
It's a beautiful day in Lancashire. Yellow beams were streaming in Turf Moor and everywhere in this famous old mill town. And oh my God! This guy seems to have caught the sun. This is a warning to us all. Remember your Amber Solar, children, these UV rays can be a mess.
Burnley gave the same name to the man who sent Brighton with ease two weeks ago. Peter Crouch still hits the bench, but what can you do when Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes played so well in this 3-1 win at Amex?
The big news for Spurs, meanwhile, is: he's back! Harry Kane is back after his injury. This is one of two changes to the eleventh that drove Borussia Dortmund steam in the second half of a sensational Champions League performance at Wembley last week. He replaces Lucas Moura, while Danny Rose replaces Davison Sanchez.

Update
Preamble
"It's like a finale for us." Mauricio Pochettino, hoping his team Tottenham Hotspur win all three points at Burnley this afternoon, in the hope of putting pressure on Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the table.
He hopes it will be a final in particular. The final of the FA Cup of 1962, to be precise. Tottenham beat Burnley in this game 3-1, with Jimmy Greaves scoring early, Bobby Smith and Danny Blanchflower sealing the deal after Jimmy Robson equalized in the second half for the Clarets. Burnley could have won the double this season, but surrendered during the title race to give the league to Alfps Ramsey, in the city of Ipswich. Different moments. But we are moving away.
Harry Kane may be back for the title race. But it's not just about Spurs. Burnley is not yet immune to relegation and wishes three valuable points. They are unbeaten in seven in the league, while the Spurs have lost two of their last three games outside the home. This is a difficult task for the title hopes, but they will be shaken by the fact that they won during their last two visits to Turf Moor. This is deliciously prepared. It's on!
Start: 12:30 Paris time.
