Spurs see red over Cottage loss
Premiership
Fulham 1, Spurs 0
SLOPPY defending and dubious refereeing decisions cost Spurs
the points in Tuesday night’s bad tempered game at Craven
Cottage, writes Dan Carrier. Spurs lost to a last minute header
from full back Carlos Bocanegra when he was not picked up by
full back Stephen Kelly. But Spurs were left fuming after seeing
centre back Michael Dawson sent off for a second yellow following
a running battle with former Arsenal star Luis Boa Morte.
Minutes earlier Jermaine Jenas had been pulled down in the box
in what looked like a clear cut penalty.
But despite post-match comments from head coach Martin Jol that
the sending off was harsh and changed the game, Spurs had only
themselves to blame.
It was a below par performance and without injured Edgar Davids
and Teemu Tainio, Tottenham’s centre backs were put under
constant pressure from a light weight midfield. |
