Half-Time Report: Tottenham Hotspur lead by three at White Hart Lane

A dominant Tottenham Hotspur lead Queens Park Rangers 3-0 at the interval of their Premier League clash at White Hart Lane.

The home side had a half chance inside one minute when Erik Lamela broke into the QPR box, but his effort was deflected wide of the post, before the resulting corner was cleared by Harry Redknapp's side.

Spurs were ahead after 12 minutes, when Nacer Chadli collected a cross from Emmanuel Adebayor before lifting his effort over the QPR stopper with ease.

Adebayor came close himself five minutes later after a mistake in the QPR defence, but the striker's effort was straight at Rob Green during an untidy period of the match for the visitors.

QPR had a golden chance of their own after 21 minutes when Matty Phillips raced into the Spurs box. He managed to sit Hugo Lloris on the ground, but chipped his effort over the crossbar.

Minutes later, Spurs rattled the woodwork through a Christian Eriksen free kick. The home team were not to be denied a second, however, with Eric Dier thumping a header into the top corner after 30 minutes.

Spurs then had a third on 37 minutes when Chadli headed a cross from the impressive Lamela into the net.
