It's half time at Udine, and Spurs have a narrow advantage at the break. It's Micky van de Ven's poacher's goal that is the difference between the two sides. Can Luis Enrique's all-conquering PSG find their form in the next 45 minutes? Stay tuned.

One minute added on by the fourth official. PSG survive another scare as Richarlison's effort hits the inside post and comes out, but the flag goes up.
A fantastic delivery from the half-way line by Vicario falls into the box after it ricochets off Marquinhos and a Spurs player. Palhinha has a good effort that Chevalier keeps out, but it falls kindly to Micky van de Ven, who pokes his foot and scores into an empty net. This is the first European goal for the Dutch defender.
Dembele is still the biggest threat for PSG going forward, and he is linking up well with Barcola down the left flank. Spurs, meanwhile, are sticking with the script of countering quick when they have the ball. Neither side, though, have managed to carve an out-an-out chance so far.
Terrific play from Tottenham, with Richarlison robbing Dembele of the ball and playing it to Kudus. The Ghanian does well to get past the defenders and plays it back to Richarlison, who has a snap shot that Chevalier tips over the bar.
From the resulting corner, Bentancur has a free header at goal, but it goes way over the bar. The Uruguayan should have done much better with that chance.
Despite having less than 30% ball posession, Tottenham are threatening every time they counter, with the PSG defenders struggling to deal with their wide players' pace. However, the final ball is missing, with Sarr's cross going wide of the target.
Tottenham are going long in the early stages, with Richarlison doing very well to keep in the cross-field ball from Kudus. The Brazilian's delivery into the box is high and beats everyone in a white shirt.
A lovely one-two down the left edge of the box results in the ball being played to Khvaratskhelia in the box. The Georgian turns and shoots, but slips up in the crucial moment and it goes wide. The first time that PSG have threatened Vicario's goal.
A brilliant start from Tottenham in the opening minutes, with a high throw into the box by Kevin Danso. PSG clear the danger somehow. Thomas Frank's set-piece exploits from Brentford seems to have been carried over to Spurs.
Totteham get the match underway in their all-white dress, and there's an early chance for the Premier League side, with Pedro Porro having a shot from distance that was high and wide. The rust among the PSG players is quite evident in the early seconds of the match.
The last time these two sides met in a competitive match was in International Champions Cup in 2017. Christian Eriksen and Toby Alderweireld each scored long-range screamers to secure a 4-2 win for Spurs against PSG.
