The last game of the season is always strange when there is little to play for and this one was no different.\u00a0 However, it was difficult to believe that Spurs were the side who had gone through a disappointing season and Sunderland the side who had been relatively successful on this showing.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With Ginola reinstated in the side, it was a relief to see Tottenham with a side that also featured Leonhardsen, one of the midfielders we had missed when out injured.\u00a0 He did only last until just before half time though, when he was replaced by another returner – Tim Sherwood.\u00a0 But prior to that there had been a most unusual occurrence in the match; Spurs had been awarded a penalty !!\u00a0 Yes, one of those fangled spot-kick things, which we hadn’t been given all Premier season long.\u00a0 Strange, as I didn’t know they had changed the laws of the game to allow fouls outside the box to be given as penalties !!\u00a0 What would we do with it ??\u00a0 Well, Darren Anderton spotted the ball, ran up and just about managed to get the ball past Sorensen’s hands into the bottom of the net.\u00a0 Ten minutes in and away we went.\u00a0 However, as always seems to happen, Spurs had scored too soon.\u00a0 Within another ten minutes, a ball from Phillips found Makin running through the right wing position and inside Ledley King and the defender slid the ball under Walker with the outside of his right foot.\u00a0 He took the goal like an established scorer, not someone getting his first for the club.\u00a0 Ginola had gone close earlier with a curling shot that evaded the keeper, but also the far post and King and Campbell both had headers on target, while at the Spurs end, Quinn drifted a header across the face of goal.\u00a0 Armstrong went down under challenge by Sorensen and while another pen. was going to be given, it did arouse some feeling amongst the Mackems back line.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The second half saw some heavy challenges, but the referee seemed happy that as it was the last game of the season to give players the benefit of the doubt.\u00a0 Phillips was trying his best to displace Shearer as Kevin Keegan’s focus of affection, with a display of petulance and petty fouling worthy of the Newcastle United forward.\u00a0 The fact that he got little change out of Perry or Sol added to his general frustration.\u00a0 The game settled into a midfield battle, but Spurs fell into their old ways of giving the ball to the opposition too much, allowing Sunderland to come on to the defence, but on the day they had few ideas. A long ball up to Quinn for a knockdown was about the extent of it.\u00a0 Summerbee had a long range effort well held by Walker, who’s only other action in the second half was to grab a speculative shot from Phillips from outside the box.\u00a0 Freund drove a low cross across the face of the box, which found Doherty (a half-time sub for Iversen), who took one touch to control it and from three yards out hit a shot (which the goalie may have got a touch to) that came back off the post.\u00a0 It looked like being one of those days.\u00a0 So, when Tottenham made a break forward and got a throw-in on the left hand side, it was a surprise when they scored from it.\u00a0 A Freund long throw was flicked on by Sol and running in at the centre of the goal unmarked was Sherwood.\u00a0 It has been his goals from midfield we have missed too and although he looked\u00a0 along way from full fitness, he did have an impact on our play.\u00a0 That was after 72 minutes, then Armstrong had a low drive go wide and the whole thing was rounded off by a marvellous goal.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A cross field ball from right to left was bouncing between two Sunderland players on the touchline, but in ran Stephen Carr, who out-jumped them and dashed forward to keep the ball in play, about ten yards inside his own half.\u00a0 He did that and moved forward with the defenders backing off him, but Stevie had other ideas.\u00a0 He looked up as he reached the edge of the area and delicately chipped the ball over the tall keeper and into the net just by the angle of post and crossbar.\u00a0 It was worthy of Hoddle at his best and the fact that it came from near the corner of the box made the execution of it even more impressive.\u00a0 It rounded off a season of great satisfaction for the young Irishman and he deserved all the cheers he earned.\u00a0 Every time he got the ball after that the crowd shouted “Shoot” and Spurs were playing keep ball for the last few minutes.\u00a0 This riled their substitute, Alex Rae, who after receiving the ball had Ginola slide into a tackle, but he was never going to be anywhere near him.\u00a0 Rae took exception and as David got up to run back to challenge him, got a deliberate elbow in the face for his troubles.\u00a0 To see their players complaining when the referee pulled out the red card was a disgrace.\u00a0 Let’s hope that Peter Reid punishes him severely as it was the second time he has perpetrated such an assault this season.\u00a0 It was a sad end to a day which saw Spurs play with some of their accustomed forward flair and end with a bitter taste in the mouth.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The other sad sight of the day came when the players bade farewell for the season.\u00a0 They split up, ran to separate parts of the ground and kicked balls and threw shirts into the crowd.\u00a0 All except Sol Campbell, who did a complete lap of the pitch slowly clapping the crowd and taking the cheers.\u00a0 He looked like a man who was saying goodbye.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Stadium of Light is a very impressive football ground. When filled with 40,000+ screaming Mackems it can be a very intimidating place for visiting teams and referees, even if you can’t understand a word the crowd are saying.<\/span><\/p>\n

George decided to adopt the squad rotation approach even though he does not have a big enough squad to rotate. In came Vega at the back for Perry, Clemence in midfield for Sherwood, and Piercy up front for Fox.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iversen had two early chances both saved by Sorensen which should have been converted. That was the total of Spurs efforts for the first half. After 10 minutes Sunderland crossed from their left. Sol rose and completely missed the header. Quinn chested down the ball and volleyed into the far corner. 1-0. Ten minutes after the restart Sunderland crossed from the right, it eluded all the Spurs defenders, Quinn chested down and volleyed home again. 2-0 and Phillips has not scored yet. Spurs struggled to get anything going in this poor first half. Ginola was out of sorts. Piercy looked like a young man thrust in at the deep end and out of his depth. Quinn gave Campbell a torrid time. At least Walker was quick off his line to clear a through ball to Phillips which saw the England striker collect a bad knock on his ankle.<\/span><\/p>\n

Desperate times require desperate measures. In the second half Dominguez replaced Ginola and Perry replaced Piercy. Vega was sent to play at centre forward. At least he is a big lad prepared to put himself about. His presence clearly unsettled Messrs Bould and Co. and Spurs had a much better second period. Iversen pulled a goal back when he finished a cross by Vega in the 63rd minute. It was a perfect cross by Vega who had charged down the right wing after being released by Leonhardsen. Kevin Phillips was then carried off on a stretcher after a robust challenge by Sol which earned him a caution.<\/span><\/p>\n

It looked as if Spurs would snatch a deserved equaliser as they swarmed on the Sunderland goal. With the Wearsiders defence rocking Sol should have scored from close range but blasted over. Carr then shot across goal and Vega came within inches of making contact. But this was to be Sunderland’s day in front of the largest crowd at The Stadium of Light so far. They now move up to third.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Tottenham it was a predictable defeat although the second half fight back showed character. There are at the moment too many injured players who are being forced into action. George needs to strengthen the squad now, particularly up front to avoid more occasions like this.<\/span><\/p>\n

A 10th minute Colin Pascoe goal shocked Spurs in this Division One match and they were even more aghast when Peter Davenport doubled the lead on 23 minutes.\u00a0 Spurs struggled to break through the Sunderland defence and it took until the 65th minute for Paul Walsh to score, having entered the fray just seven minutes before as a substitute.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Walshie completed his brace on 70 minutes to make it 2-2, but Pascoe restored the Rokerites lead six minutes later.\u00a0 Spurs were grateful to Gary Lineker for their equaliser in stoppage time to take a point at 3-3.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A brilliant goalkeeping display by Chris Turner foiled Tottenham’s attempts to progress in the League Cup at White Hart Lane.<\/span><\/p>\n

Graham Roberts gave Spurs an early lead from the penalty spot, but the visitors equalised with a shot that deflected in off Paul Miller.\u00a0 Turner then came into his own, saving shot after shot and a second Roberts penalty.\u00a0 His best effort denied Mark Falco a goal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs won a point at home to a defensive minded Sunderland, who snatched a late equaliser after Terry Gibson had given Tottenham the lead.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Wearsiders pushed forward in the opening ten minutes, with West wasting a good chance when he headed Leighton James’ cross weakly straight at Ray Clemence before Spurs took control of the first half.\u00a0 John Lacy brought a smart save out of Turner in the Sunderland goal, with Graham Roberts failing to find the net from a clear chance that he skied over the top.\u00a0 The deadlock was broken in the 19th minute when Gary Mabbutt put in a cross for Terry Gibson to bring under control and beat Turner with his shot.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After half-time, Turner made an impressive save when he held onto Gibson’s volley from ten yards out when West completely missed Hoddle’s long throw-in and the little striker was denied a second goal when Turner was quickly out at his feet to stop his shot off the end of a Hoddle through pass.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With nearly an hour gone Venison made a run out of defence and played the ball in to Colin West, in the box but his shot did not require Clemence to save, as he sliced it wide of the target.<\/span><\/p>\n

With five minutes remaining, Leighton James ran forward and put in a fierce cross that Roberts misjudged and handled with Ally McCoist making a run in behind him.\u00a0 The linesman flagged and a penalty was awarded, as the ref had been unsighted and Stan Cummins sent Clem the wrong way from the spot to make it 1-1.<\/span><\/p>\n

After going three games without a victory, Tottenham’s 2-1 win at Roker Park was a welcome win.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A Neil McNab effort had threatened the Sunderland goal in the early stages of the game, but an eighth minute lead was secured when John Duncan scored.\u00a0 A penalty was awarded to the home side when Colin Lee was adjudged to have fouled Jack Ashurst and the scores were levelled when Gary Rowell shot the spot-kick past Daines.\u00a0 Sunderland pushed into the Spurs penalty area and the ball pin-balled about the box, but stayed out of the goal.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the second half, Tottenham played a more controlled game, which paid off when Colin Lee crossed for Duncan to coolly steer home the winner in the 68th minute.\u00a0 The second half also saw Barry Daines make some important saves to keep Sunderland out and\u00a0 dived at the feet of Joe Bolton to deny him when it looked like he might score.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Chris Jones struck a spectacular equaliser to earn Tottenham a draw against the Rokerites at White Hart Lane in this game in the Second Division after Mel <\/span> Holden had given Sunderland the lead<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jackie Ashurst had the first chance in this relegation battle, with a 25 yard drive the Daines got down to his right to save after Terry Naylor had his pass intercepted and Spurs created a chance when Gerry Armstrong out-muscled Colin Waldron to a high ball chipped forward by John Pratt and forced Barry Siddall to close him down and smother his shot.\u00a0 The first half was constantly interrupted by free-kicks being given for fouls and offside and the nerves of two sides close to the bottom of the table, combined with a strong wind and a bobbly pitch failed to produce many moments of quality.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Three minutes into the second half, a right wing cross from Towers was planted past Barry Daines by 6’2″ striker Mel Holden, despite him getting a hand to it.\u00a0 The striker almost doubled the lead when he was found in the middle by Kevin Arnott, but his shot was well stopped by the Spurs keeper.\u00a0 Armstrong did well to break into the area between two yellow shirted opponents, but his shot was very wide of the goal and Osgood tried to beat the Sunderland offside trap by chasing his own ball over the defence, but it ran too far for him to reach it.\u00a0 Just before the hour, Siddall’s clearance was won in the air by Naylor and Micky Stead got to the loose ball first to knock it on to Hoddle.\u00a0 Looking up, he played a long ball forward for Armstrong to head on to Jones, whose left foot drive from just inside the area beat Siddall all ends up to make the score 1-1.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sunderland had thought they had won it late on, but when Waldron knocked the ball on for Arnott to score, he had been ruled offside and the visitors had to defend at the death to make sure Peter Taylor’s chipped cross into the goalmouth came to nothing.<\/span>

A fourth minute goal from Ian Moores was not enough to take the points at Sunderland in this First Division match.\u00a0 A long kick up-field by Jennings was knocked on by John Pratt to Alfie Conn.\u00a0 The flamboyant Scotsman flicked the ball between his legs to put Moores in to shoot past Barry Siddall.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Alfie Conn came as close as possible to adding a second, with his shot hitting the post, bounce across the line to hit the other upright and then come out into play.\u00a0 While Spurs could not add to their score, they controlled the play for 70 minutes until Sunderland got two late goals. <\/span> In the 76th minute, Ray Train equalised for the home side and Bob Lee’s late winner made it a long journey home for Tottenham with nothing for their troubles and left them <\/span> second bottom in Division 1<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A single goal won this match for Sunderland and it came from Tottenham’s centre-half Mike England, who put through his own net in the 41st minute to give the Rokerites two First Division points.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Tottenham had occupied eighth place in the First Division and Sunderland were bottom, but with Spurs seeking a goal, Mike England was pushed up front to bolster the attack. However, despite bringing out two fine stops from keeper Jim Montgomery, he was unable to find the net and Steve Perryman’s debut ended in defeat.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jimmy Greaves could be said to have won this game on his own with four of Tottenham’s five goals as they restricted Sunderland to one in reply in this First Division match at the Lane.<\/span><\/p>\n

Greaves tucked away a second goal with a side-footed finish at the far post past Montgomery from a couple of yards out and his third followed a save by the keeper that prevented Terry Venables scoring, but Greaves was alert and ran onto the ball, firing it high into the net.\u00a0 Despite the score-line, Jim Montgomery played very well in the Sunderland goal and prevented an even bigger defeat for the Wearsiders<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs ran out 3-0 winners in this First Division meeting with Sunderland at White Hart Lane.<\/span> There were no goals in a disappointing first half, but two quick goals out Spurs in the driving seat.\u00a0 Jimmy Greaves headed home Terry Dyson’s left wing cross at the far post to make it 1-0 and within five minutes of the restart the lead had been doubled, with Cliff Jones’ diving header finishing off Jimmy Robertson’s left wing cross.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Robertson made it 3-0 himself, when his first shot was stopped by defender Dickie Rooks, but he converted the rebound by knocking it home past goalkeeper Jim Montgomery.\u00a0 There was a chance for Sunderland to pull one back, but a penalty kick taken by Johnny Crossan hit the post and bounced away from goal.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A much improved performance in the Sixth Round FA Cup replay saw Spurs move into the semi-finals to meet Burnley in front of a packed White Hart Lane, with rumours there were as many locked outside as there were inside.<\/span> John White struck a 27th minute shot that hit Charlie Hurley and looped up into the air for\u00a0Les Allen to shoot into the net.\u00a0 The two Spurs players linked up just after the half hour to provide Cliff Jones with a shot that keeper Peter Wakeham could only block the ball into the path of Bobby Smith, who hit the net to make it 2-0.\u00a0 Terry Dyson made it three before half time with a goal created by Jones, leaving Sunderland with a mountain to climb.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With a fourth goal in the 65th minute courtesy of Dyson’s header, Spurs went on to wrap up the win five minutes later when Dave Mackay looped in a shot with his left foot to put Spurs through.\u00a0 Ian Lawther had Sunderland’s best opportunity, but shot over the bar.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The game was delayed by a pitch invasion that saw Danny Blanchflower advise the referee to allow the fans to celebrate and then restart the game, with Spurs having had the time to regroup.

Tottenham’s trip to Roker Park brought a First Division point in a match that had a thrilling finish.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A goal in the first half by Johnny Brooks was levelled by Billy Bingham’s second half goal, but there were chances for both sides to win the match.\u00a0 Bobby Smith went through and although he was tripped on the edge of the box, kept going, only to be robbed of a shooting chance just as he was about to shoot.\u00a0 Sunderland thought they had won the game near the end, as Alan O’Neil put the ball in the net, but the referee ruled it out for offside and both sides had to settle for a share of the spoils.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

A match that started in an understated manner on a rain-soaked White Hart Lane pitch saw Sunderland emerge 3-2 winners to lead the Division 1 table.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>In contrast, Tottenham found themselves one off the bottom of the table at kick off and this result failed to help their situation<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

Days of rain had turned the Spurs pitch into a quagmire, with the players also having to contend with a fierce wind blowing through the stadium.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>It was the visitors who grabbed the opening goal after 14 minutes, when Anderson played a pass out from the back to Billy Bingham, who found Chisholm.\u00a0 His ball inside to the in form striker Fleming ended up whizzing past Ted Ditchburn and in off the post to hand Sunderland a 1-0 advantage.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Although Fleming now had scored 10 goals in 11 matches, he failed to stretch the lead with a couple of equally good openings before the half-time whistle blew.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs had the balance of the game early in the second half, with Sunderland keeper Fraser the busier of the two goalies.\u00a0 However, the visitors went further ahead in the 67th minute.\u00a0 Spurs had cleared the ball wide of the pitch 18 yards out and had not bargained for the talented Len Shackleton to pick it up, weave past three defenders and then rocket a shot into the net to make it 2-0.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Tottenham fought back with a goal four minutes later, thanks to George Robb scoring with a far post header and within another five minutes they equalised after Dave Dunmore’s powerful header bounced down off the bar with Johnny Brooks the sharpest to react and net the loose ball.\u00a0 The fans’ joy lasted only a minute, because a loose pass inside the Tottenham penalty area was cut out by Ted Purdon and he turned to hit a shot across Ditchburn to make it 3-2 to the Wearsiders.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Even though Spurs had lost, it was only a man of the match performance by Sunderland’s Willie Fraser in goal that had kept Tottenham out in a match that saw all the goals crammed into a ten minute spell in the second half.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Spurs visited Sunderland at Roker Park and the teams shared the points in a 1-1 draw.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tottenham had more chances in the match, but poor finishing cost them the win.

A first half goal by ten man Spurs was equalised in the second to see the sides share the points at White Hart Lane.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After Sid McClellan had seen his debut end with a knock on the head that required his removal to hospital leaving Spurs with ten men halfway through the first half, Tottenham pushed forward.\u00a0 Although a man short, Denis Uphill slipped a pass to Eddie Baily, who shot home to give Spurs the lead before the break.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs staged a fine comeback from a goal down to record a big win over high-riding Sunderland at White Hart Lane in this FA Cup Fourth Round tie.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dickie Davis put the Rokerites ahead with an 11th minute shot from the edge of the area after he was set up by Tommy McLain.\u00a0 It took only six minutes for Spurs to equalise, when Billy Rees got to a long pass up the wing and crossed for Sonny Walters to score, with his effort taking a deflection off Jack Stelling on it’s way in.\u00a0 Just after the half hour, Walters turned provider for Les Bennett to nod Tottenham in front off the left hand upright.\u00a0 Ivor Broadis, who had played for Spurs during the war, missed a great opportunity to level the scores after the restart, but Walters punished the mistake with his second goal of the match, a scrambled effort in the 69th minute.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs were now in the ascendancy and on 76 minutes, Les Medley smashed an unstoppable shot past Mapson after Rees, Baily and Walters had all linked up.\u00a0 Medley had a last minute shot blocked, <\/span>after Ron Burgess’ run had presented the chance, but Bennett was on hand to round off the win with his second goal in front of a big crowd at the Lane, including some 16,000 Mackems.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A game to forget for Tottenham saw their visit to the North-East end in a 0-6 defeat.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

0-1 down in eight minutes to a Bobby Gurney goal, Spurs steadied their ship and reached the break still losing by a single goal.\u00a0 Despite playing into a biting wind, Sunderland took control of the game and put Spurs to the sword in the second half.\u00a0 Bert Johnson’s long range passing created the opportunities to punish Tottenham and three goals in four minutes from Jimmy Connor and Raich Carter (two) meant the game was out of our reach.\u00a0 It wasn’t the end for the home team though and they went on to add two more goals, with a 73rd minute goal for Carter completing his treble and Gurney rounded the scoring off ten minutes from time to make it 6-0.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sunderland sat at the top of Division 1 when lowly Tottenham made the journey to play them at Roker Park and both stayed in their\u00a0 respective positions after a 4-0 home win amidst pre-match rain and fog, which made many fans think the match would not go ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Spurs, Tom Collins was making his debut, but it was the opposite full back Ernie Coquet whose unfortunate own goal by in the third minute set Spurs back straight away.\u00a0 Mordue had made ground on the wing, putting in a cross that Tommy Lunn and Coquet failed to deal with and the ball went in off the defender to put the home team ahead early on.\u00a0 The conditions made playing difficult, but Sunderland were sharp from the start and a number of attacks had to be dealt with effectively by Lunn and Coquet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Cowell hit the bar, the ball bounced down Tim Coleman controlled the ball, dummied to shoot and then rifled the ball past Lunn in the 25th minute to double the lead.\u00a0 The weather improved five minutes later, but the flow of the match did not improve for Tottenham who relied on Lunn to keep the score down with a string of fine saves.<\/span><\/p>\n

After half-time Sunderland continued their ceaseless attacking and seven minutes after the turnaround, Arthur Bridgett made it 3-0 when he beat defenders on the wing before scoring from an acute angle and Coleman wrapped up a convincing win in the 62nd minute with his second of the game.\u00a0 Collins had tackled Bridgett, but the ball ran for the Black Cats’ winger who went on to beat two more defenders before crossing to Coleman, who weaved his way into a shooting position to plant the ball accurately into the net.<\/span><\/p>\n
