TOTTENHAM 5 ARSENAL 1 (SPURS WIN 6-2 ON AGGREGATE)

Tottenham will play in the Carling Cup final at Wembley after a sensational performance saw them beat local rivals Arsenal 5-1 at White Hart Lane.

Jermaine Jenas, who also scored in the first leg, fired a shot in off the post after just three minutes.

Nicolas Bendtner headed into his own net, while Dimitar Berbatov should have made the game safe before half time, his scuffed shot hitting the post when clean through on goal.

A fantastic Aaron Lennon through ball set up Keane to make it 3-0 before the England winger got on the scoresheet himself.

Substitute Emmanuel Adebayor pulled on back with a scorching shot from the edge of the box, but it was Spurs who had the last laugh as Malbranque tapped in a Jenas pass to complete the rout in stoppage time.
