Having overturned a 1-0 deficit against the Dutch side and won the tie 3-2, Spurs keep alive their hopes of ending a trophy drought that stretches back to 2008.
Spurs pounced on some sloppy defence in the 26th minute, with Dominic Solanke passing to Wilson Odobert who made no mistakes with the finish.
Soon after the break, captain Son Heung-min set up the team’s second goal with another excellent finish.
However, disaster struck for Ange Postecolgou’s men in the 63rd minute when a monumental brain fade in defence gifted Alkmaar their opener, with Peer Koopmeiners the goal-scorer. Odobert, guilty of lazy defence during Alkmaar’s goal, didn’t have to wait long for redemption, putting away Tottenham’s third goal in the 75th minute.
Spurs held on despite some tense final moments to book their spot in the top eight, where they will face German side Eintracht Frankfurt.
