Burnley held by Tottenham

Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur's Champions League ambitions have faded further on Sunday after they played to a torpid 0-0 draw at struggling Burnley in the Premier League.

With top scorer Harry Kane captain in the absence of the injured Hugo Lloris, Spurs were seeking a victory that would have lifted them above fifth-place Liverpool and to within five points of the top four.

But they endured a frustrating afternoon in the Turf Moor sunshine and despite recording a first clean sheet in 11 games, they are now seven points below the Champions League places with only seven games to play.
