Two goals from Robbie Keane kept the Londoners' slim hopes of European football alive after victory against relegated West Brom.
His first came on the stroke of half-time after West Brom striker Danny Dichio had broken the deadlock with a header after 24 minutes.
Then Neil Clement fired in a 25-yard free-kick after 61 minutes to put the home side back into the lead before Teddy Sheringham struck a minute later.
Keane then settled the affair by beating keeper Russell Hoult with a low shot five minutes from time.
West Brom, who grabbed their first victory since September in Saturday's 2-1 win against Sunderland, were first out of the blocks and determined to go down fighting.
Spurs boss Glenn Hoddle's powers of motivation faced a huge test after the dreadful 2-0 defeat on Good Friday by Manchester City at White Hart Lane.
And it was Keane who reacted best with a busy first-half display.
The pick of his early efforts was a trademark overhead kick, which forced a fine save from Hoult in the Baggies goal on 21 minutes.
However, it was the home side that looked the most dangerous and they deserved to break the deadlock.
Jason Koumas supplied the cross for Dichio, who headed past Spurs keeper Kasey Keller from six yards out.
Roberts had the ball in the net just minutes before half-time but referee Dowd disallowed the goal after an earlier infringement.
The near-miss jolted Spurs into life.
Keane combined well with strike partner Sheringham to slot the ball past Hoult for the equaliser in stoppage time.
Spurs opened the second half the brighter and could consider themselves unlucky after substitute Gus Poyet's shot from a Matt Etherington pass went the wrong side of the post.
West Brom took advantage by going into the lead again when Clement's free-kick flew past Keller.
But Spurs were not out of it, and went up the other end for an equaliser within two minutes.
A free-kick fell into the path of Goran Bunjevcevic, whose header struck the post before veteran Teddy Sheringham passed the ball into the net.
Then Keane struck with five minutes remaining after latching on to a Ledley King through-ball to finish with customary aplomb.
