The ball went to the onside Keane who dribbled past Yobo and sent the ball over the body of the keeper into the back of the net.

90th min. Final whistle.

Final score: Tottenham 4-3 Everton.

Bottom line: The game was rather interesting from both sides, Said will get his chance soon as Everton's defense appeared very shaky during the game and allowed Robbie Keane to score three times from obvious defensive and marking mistakes. Moyes didn't run the risk and kept Said on bench as the deficit was narrow during the whole 90 minutes.
