Players going mental!
Spurs in the Champions League
its all over!
seconds left…
2 minutes to go as Pavlyuchenko nearly doubles Tottenham’s lead but Fulop saves
4 added on
Bellamy goes off for Santa Cruz
Etherington scored for Stoke
Crouch nods in at the near post for Spurs…. huge goal for them… could be worth 40 million quid!
GOAL FOR STOKE!
82nd minute!
crouch!
GOAL FOR SPURS!!
Pavlyuchenko is finally on for Defoe
Tevez’s shot again blocked by King
Fulop will be the hero tonight though if it stays like this
Heads it against Fulop’s legs after Bale’s cross. Harry’s own fault for not playing Pavlyuchenko!
Crouch misses a sitter for Spurs!
0-0 would bring it to the last day
Corner for City, end to end stuff now!
still scoreless at Craven Cottage….. pointless game anyway
haha 6-6 between Motherwell and Hibs!
Lennon comes off for David Bentley, and Johnson is replaced by Wright-Phillips for City
Lennon crosses and both Crouch and Defoe miss it….. one touch would have sent it in
how are spurs not in front!
23 minutes left!
Modric and Crouch link up but can’t force it past the City defence…..and Spurs go forward again and a cross for Crouch is vitally intercepted by Toure
Stokes hit two goals for Hibs……as Assou Ekotto goes in the book for his tackle on De Jong
no goals here yet…… but there has been a few at Fir Park in Scotland – Hibs lead Motherwell 6-5!
Huddlestone is called over by ref Steve Bennett and booked for a challenge on Vieira
Bale plays in Defoe who fires towards the bottom corner – top save from Fulop
What a chance for Spurs!
Vieira will come on to replace him it seems……
Gareth Barry gets injured and looks as if his night is over, he’s in a lot of pain
Barry and Johnson cause mayhem in the Spurs box and Barry flicks it across goal but nobody is there to turn it in
Back underway at Craven Cottage too
Back underway, no changes at half time either
half time. phew….some half. Pity no goals but one is coming.
the camera cuts to our Shay who is in the stand in a sling but we concentrate on the blonde sitting beside him.
Crouch is down after an awkward landing…….
Barry picks out Tevez whoslces at the side netting, he went too far wide
Bellamy whips it in but Gomes gathers a Toure effort off his shoulder
Johnson runs up the right flank but is stopped by an excellent tackle frm Assou-Ekotto, corner.
Lovely hit though on the half-volley
Crouch nods it down to Bale who fires wide – should have scored
It’s still scoreless in the dead rubber at Craven Cottage
Gomes having a stormer for Spurs, good pressure from City
33 minutes gone…. first goal nearly comes when Gomes saves from Johnson!
Bellamy’s next corner headed over by Adebayor… what a game!
Bellamy hits the corner…. flicked out to Johnson who rasps it and a fine save from Gomes
Bellamy gives it to Tevez who shoots from range and King gets a head on it. Looked painful
Ledley King heads in a Bale corner for Spurs but it’s ruled out for a foul on Barry
Crouch thought he had scored though, the big fella
This is better from Spurs
Bale whips in a corner and spurs hit the post as Crouch heads it!
It’s all City.
Tevez had his weetabix. He’s covered some ground already
first big chance, Tevez goes on an amazing run past Dawson, Assou Ekotto makes a mess of it but Gomes blocks the shot
Great movement from both sides on the ball. Lennon and Bellamy are on the same wing and look sharp as always
anybody think Mancini looks silly in that scarf?
City have won 21 of their last 28 home league games we are told
Bellamy darts through for City and plays Barry in but he scuffs it. Spurs goal kick.
Ricky Hatton looks on……here we go
The game is dubbed “cash wednesday” by Sky Sports
Oasis rings out at Eastlands as the teams come out
City have only beaten spurs twice in the premier league when at home…….
Well, all eyes on Atletico Madrid. Fulham beat Hamburg. But the final is on in Hamburg. You get the point.
It’s receiving all the media attention too, Fulham have all eyes on Hamburg don’t they?
Massive game at Eastlands……. winner takes all!
