As I am woefully late for a preview, I will try to redeem myself with a second half preview/half time thoughts for the match.
First Half Thoughts:
- We started the game slowly, still feeling the hangover from last week's disappointing results.
- Tottenham scored from a lucky deflection, still we were way too easily caught out.
- Referee Mike Dean was shit as usual. While he ignored our penalty claim, he fell for a Gareth Bale dive. Greedybayor converted the resulting penalty.
- Two nil down and it was the same horror story all over again. But this time we went for it.
- Bacary Sagna pulled one back with a well directed header from a cross.
- Robin van Persie equalized with a delightful strike from outside the box.
