Raining Drama In North London

By: chris | October 29th, 2008

So I switched to the North London derby just in time to see David Bentley score a “fuck you” lob goal from about 35 yards out (above) to shockingly open up the scoring against his old pals. From there it was all Arsenal, at least up until the the 89th when it was 4-2. Final score? 4-4. Two Spurs goals, some how, some way. Of course, my stream died in the 85th and I decided “game’s over anyway, no point scurrying for another”. Why would I do such a thing? I’ve got tonight’s lotto if you’re interested too.

The other seven after the jump.

1-1

2-1

3-1

3-2

4-2
 

4-3

4-4

    I had the exact same thing happen…stream died in the 80th minute, decided it was over anyways at 4-2 so I didn’t try to find another one…was pissed when I saw they choked and came away with only a draw. Those points given away could be huge come end of the season.

    Alumia is not the answer

    didnt see the game but it looks like tottenham was extremely fortunate, all the goals had an element of flukiness. Spurs will be in trouble rest of the way.

    Almunia is good…. if you put him in one goal and Paul Robinson in the other, no one would be able to score… of course, when I say “no one” I mean “everyone who has ever kicked any kind of ball.”

    How was the last one poor keeping? He has to go for the ball because he doesn’t know if it will be in the side netting or not. It’s more like bad defending for no one tracking back to clear the ball.

    I was at my desk at work streaming the match and when Lennon tapped that ball back in I jumped up so quickly that I hit both of my thighs against my desk and made the loudest possible sound… people can figure out that you’re not working when you slam your legs into a hard object and you’re giggling like a schoolgirl at the same time

    amazing match, and I’m already loving the Harry Redknapp Era!

    ^^^ mustaf, i had the exact opposite reaction… under my breath i was like “what the ffffuuuhhh” and i stopped myself when lennon put that it in….

    for about 80 minutes of this match arsenal were having their way with spurs…. but in those other 10 minutes, alot of careless arsenal play (why not posess the ball and kill the game at the end instead of tryin to attack?) mixed with pure spurs luck (jenas still doesnt know he scored), and you get a 4-4 draw.. i think maybe the lennon goal and bentley goal were the only spurs goals they actually created.. the other two were because of bad goalkeeping and a slip from clichy….

    i have a bad feeling these 2 dropped points are going to come back to bite arsenal in the ass :(

    Almunia has been playing great for Arsenal but I think
    teams are finding that he is vulnerable from behind the box
    and game after game he is conceding goals from a far distance. Didn’t see the game but couple of the goals were clearly his fault. All that aside, the CAPTAIN of the team should’ve had this one under control but yet failed again!
