In pictures: Tottenham v Young Boys

Last week's turbulent encounter between these sides ended 3-2 to the Swiss underdogs - a "great defeat" according to the Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp after Sebastién Bassong and Roman Pavlyuchenko pulled the Londoners back from 3-0 down. Tottenham must win tonight if they are to reach the main Champions League draw for the first time since 1961/62, but with pelting rain and a greasy playing surface tonight's fixture could be as tricky as the last. At least the pitch isn't plastic, eh Harry?

He orders his team-mate Michael Dawson to duck before steering a header beyond the goalkeeper and into the far corner. It's 1-0 to Tottenham and that gives them the overall advantage on away goals Photograph: Sean Dempsey/PA Just as Senad Lulic gave Young Boys an early breakthrough last week, Crouch has given Spurs the ideal start to this second leg Photograph: Sean Dempsey/PA Jermain Defoe makes it 2-0 in the 32nd minute with a left-foot shot which goes in off the post. But Young Boys defenders are livid. Defoe clearly handled the ball as he brought it down, but the referee and his assistants were oblivious Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images Defoe looks to add a third, but his effort slides wide of the goalkeeper Marco Wolfli's far post Photograph: Clive Rose/Getty Images At the other end, Tottenham's keeper Heurelho Gomes wants to call it a night. He's picked up an injury and is signalling to the bench that he needs to come off. But Redknapp isn't having a bar of it. It looks like he's going to keep the Brazilian on until half-time regardless Photograph: Tony O'Brien/Action Images In the 61st minute, Crouch scores his second and Tottenham's third of the night. Young Boys need to score twice now just to take the tie into extra-time and the chances of that happening are negligible - they've not even looked like scoring one tonight Photograph: Tony O'Brien/Action Images Such is the effectiveness of the big Tottenham striker, Anmar Jemal has resorted to body-checking him in an effort to prevent another goal Photograph: Eddie Keogh/Reuters When Gareth Bale is felled by Senad Lulic inside the box ... Photograph: Clive Rose/Getty Images ... Crouch converts from the penalty spot to complete his hat-trick Photograph: Eddie Keogh/Reuters Crouch, whose goal against Manchester City in the penultimate game of last season hauled Tottenham into the Champions League qualifying round, is mobbed by his team-mates. But equal credit must go to Gareth Bale who has created all of Tottenham's goals tonight Photograph: Clive Rose/Getty Images The final whistle blows and Crouch celebrates with Carlo Cudicini, who was brought on to replace Gomes at half-time Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images Dawson and Ledley King have looked solid enough tonight, but sterner tests await. Barcelona, Inter, Bayern, Milan or Lyon... Spurs are guaranteed to draw at least one of those sides Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images
