Brentford v Spurs Match Reports

A rainy day had left the Spurs pitch slippy, just like the banana skin that Brentford presented in this second leg tie.  For their fans, who regarded Tottenham a “disgrace to the Premiership”, this was a day out to dream about what could be, if they had a manager who could match his outspoken comments with achievements on the field.  The one of the things lacking in this game was a goal from Ramon Vega (at the right end), which would have allowed him to present Mr. Noades with a signed shirt following criticism of him in the first leg.

Having drawn away, Tottenham had to win and with most of the play heading towards Gottskalksson’s goal, it was only a matter of time before a goal came.  That it came after 52 minutes was a matter of concern for the Spurs fans.  Early on, Tottenham had chances.  Iversen landed a header on the top of the net and lobbed just over after beating the keeper to the ball, while Leonhardsen was pipped by the goalie’s rush to nick the ball off his head.  Les had a couple of headers off target, Perry’s flick from a corner landed in front of goal with no-one in attendance and Rebrov hit a shot from outside the box straight at the keeper.  Ferdinand did have the ball in the net after a good move involving Carr, whose low cross was slid in by Sir Les, but he was adjudged to have been offside.  The first half was a bit of a damp squib for the Bees, who only got angry when two players went tumbling (in the gymnastic sense) in the area.  The lukewarm ref was reluctant to give a penalty, much as he was to give a free-kick to Spurs anywhere else on the pitch.  A new record was established, however, when the “Graham Out” faction began their chant just 14 minutes into the match.

The second half was a bit more open as Tottenham’s ability began to create chances.  Not many came from flowing football, but the passing was a bit better and Leo started to get into the game and play more like he can at his best.  One when Freund went one on one with the keeper saw the ball bounce of the goalie’s chest, onto Steffen’s knee and towards goal.  We all held our breath as the sphere moved unerringly to the net, but out of nowhere a Brentford defender hooked it away !!  Celebrations stored away for another day.  It was all too much for Brentford, who when presented a golden chance by a Vega miskick, the startled Partridge contrived to blaze that over the bar.  From the goal-kick Spurs moved down the other end and scored.  Sherwood’s header forward took a flick off ex-Gooner Marshall’s head and Oyvind, running in managed to ignore the blatant tug on his shirt to put the ball in for the first goal.  A spate of corners conceded by Spurs led to a spell where the ball pinged around the Tottenham box, but there were no real scares.  It had started when Thatcher put in his first really hard tackle in a white shirt that saw Martin Rowlands end up limping after a collision with the adverts behind the goal !!  It was one of the few things Thatcher did right all night, as his distribution was awful for most of the match.

The former Wimbledon left-back did have a fierce drive miss by inches late on and his colleague on the other side of the defence nearly added another spectacular goal to his record, but it flew just over.  Gotskalksson dived bravely at the feet of Leonhardsen and Iversen to deny them, but could not hold Leo’s shot from the right and as it trickled across the six yard box, the Norwegian striker gained some revenge, by knocking it into the net.  

The scoreline flattered Spurs, as although they never looked like conceding, they rarely looked like breaking through the Bee’s swarm of defenders.  It was just enough to get through, but not quite enough for the fans to go home with any great hope of progressing too far.

What a start !  An early goal inside 60 seconds was just what the game needed. Unfortunately, it was just what Tottenham didn’t need. A through ball inside Carr from Charlie Oatway was latched onto and Andy Scott went on to beat Segers at the foot of the post. The Brentford aggregate equaliser, on top of all the speculation about George Graham, was another potential nail in the coffin. However, the early storm was weathered with a fingertip save from Segers and with some last ditch defending, Spurs managed to turn the game around. It was all done in a manner which was none too impressive considering that the Bees are in the Third Division. Chris Armstrong had a couple of free headers that he failed to get on target and apart from headers off target from Sol and Dazza, the only other effort to hit the mark was an Armstrong shot that Piercy saved, but Nielsen seized on the loose ball lashing it low between the keeper’s legs to make it 1-1.

The second half started in the same vein as the first, but this time it was Tottenham through Sol who got the goal. A shot by Fox went across the goal instead of in it, but fell kindly for Ginola. His fierce shot was well kept out by the keeper, but the ball looped up for Campbell to head home while virtually prostrate. The third came when Nielsen hit a low drive against the post and Armstrong found the ball at his feet, four yards out with only a defender on the line to beat. He composed himself, despite having suffered a nasty gash on his forehead, to score his first goal of the season. Brentford didn’t give up though and scored the goal of the game – a well worked effort from front to back, rounded off by a good finish from Owusu with 74 minutes gone. Tottenham could have had more if Armstrong had set someone up instead of producing a fancy back-heel and Dominguez hit a free-kick high and wide, but many shots failed to trouble the goalie and the score was probably just about right.

Unimpressive, but at the moment even a victory over a Third Division side is welcome. The formation seemed to be more fluid tonight with Anderton and Ginola swapping flanks, but more often than not, the moves ended unsatisfactorily. I know that he is just back from injury, but Darren had another showing that did nothing to convince me that he is likely to reproduce his England form. Nielsen ran and worked really hard, liberating Ginola and Anderton to their creative role. Sol produced some of his now trademark two-thirds of the pitch runs beating five or six players and that got the crowd going. Even though it was against a lower league side, Justin put in a decent enough performance and looked a better prospect than Spamezzani in our dodgy left back slot. But, the thoughts of the meagre crowd (22,000 officially, but with the number of season ticket holders who didn’t turn up, more like 18,000) were elsewhere as the anti-George Graham songs demonstrated. Word was that he was on his way, but when ? Surely not before Saturday’s home game against Leeds !

So, a tricky little match overcome in style. Well, not quite, because despite the score-line there were still some dodgy moments. The early goal to the home side came from a corner, which wasn’t attacked by the Spurs defence and went in via Scott’s knee. There were some scares involving Baardsen, especially when he kicked the ball straight into the on-coming forward and was relieved to see it go past the post. The equaliser came just before half-time when Stephen Carr moved onto a good lob through from Rory Allen (in for Les) and lashed it high into the net. Dominguez latched onto a sliced clearance and shot home number two, before Andy Sinton decided to slip the ball past Espen, as he came out, right into the path of Darren Freeman (the man who has a Spurs tattoo on his leg) who put it into an unguarded net. The match was saved by Ramon Vega, who headed home Ginola’s corner to give Tottenham a slight advantage in the return. Ginola was the main source of supply, but seemed to be a bit peeved about things at half-time, as did David Pleat, who allegedly stormed away after the game. These games should be a formality, but, as West Ham found out, they can so easily become a minefield.
Glad in the end to take something back to White Hart Lane, but must do better.

Spurs had the confidence of a first leg win and went on to win this game 4-2 and the League Cup Second Round tie 7-3 on aggregate.  

A Spurs throw in on the right of the penalty area was put in to the edge of the area where Teddy Sheringham knocked it back to Darren Anderton, who blasted the ball into the net from 20 yards with two and a half minutes on the clock.  Then a long ball was headed on and Nick Barmby was onto it like a flash, forcing goalkeeper Ashley Bayes to bring him down in the area and the resulting penalty kick was dispatched by Sheringham, sending the goalie the wrong way.

Brentford hit back with a headed goal by Gary Blissett from Luscomb’s right wing free-kick, but the two goal margin was restored when Tuttle found Anderton and his through ball was fumbled by Bayes, allowing Andy Turner to nip in and pinch the ball to score.  It became 4-1 when Anderton’s pass found Sheringham alone in the area and he side-stepped a challenge from a defender before clinically finding the net with time running out.  However, there was still time left for a right wing Brentford corner to come in and for Keith Millen to bundle the ball home from close range to make the final score 4-2.

Spurs earned a 3-1 home win in the first leg of the League Cup Second Round match against Brentford at White Hart Lane.

Steve Sedgley’s pass picked out Teddy Sheringham on the edge of the Brentford penalty area and the striker slid the ball past the keeper as he approached to give Tottenham the lead, but the Bees pulled level with Gary Blissett’s goal heading home from a left wing cross.  A second goal came Tottenham’s way when Gordon Durie crossed from the right for Kevin Watson to head in from close range to restore the lead.  In the 74th minute, the victory was wrapped up by Durie, who took Sheringham’s flick-on on his chest, let it drop and then fired a looping shot over Ashley Bayes to make it 3-1.
