Spurs faced an onform Arsenal side on
Saturday noon. The North London derby clash ended in
a lucky draw for Tottenham who almost lost at their
home turf but a last gasp strike from Jenas ended the
game in a 2-2 draw.
Spurs pressurized their opponents in the
opening minutes of the game and managed to score their
first goal in the 30th minute through Robbie Keane who
deflected the ball home with his head after a header
from Dawson.
Spurs were solid in the first half and
managed to end it in a 1-0 lead. However, the 2nd half
was a different story as Arsenal outplayed Tottenham
and totally dominated in midfield. This allowed the
guests to create many chances and score two goals.
The first goal came in the 64th minute
through Toure who sent the ball home after a cross from
the left wing. On the other side, the 2nd goal came
through Adebayor who headed the ball home after a cross
from the right wing. The same player hit the bar a few
minutes before his goal and managed to score from his
2nd header on target.
After taking the lead by two goals, it
was obvious that Spurs were of no match to the quality
of Arsenal. The whole midfield of Tottenham was eclipsed
by the Gunners midfield and all Tottenham attacks were
random passes from defense to attack.
Martin Jol made some substitutions to
help his side get back into the game. The changes didn't
do much as the introduced players couldn't offer much.
The Dutch coach introduced Malbranque instead of Lennon,
Huddlestone in place of Tainio and Defoe for Zokora.
Arsenal deserved to win because of their
superb 2nd half performance. However, Jenas managed
to pull level in the 4th minute of stoppage time from
a low strike from outside the box, Jenas shot beat Lehmann
and went in to make the score 2-2 and to rescue a point
for Spurs.
