Failure to hold on again

Spurs 2 Liverpool 2

Team line-up: Robinson, Lee, Dawson, Kaboul, Chimbonda, Bale, Jenas, Tainio, Zokora, Berbatov, Keane.

Another story of so close but yet so far. How many times do Spurs fail to hang on to a lead? Too many.

I can at least say that the Berba Keano partnership is back - both goals were provided by the Bulgarian for Robbie to score, one either side of half time. I love the photo captured here - is there an invisible trampoline underneath Keano?

Unfortunately, further questions have to be asked about Robinson. Liverpool's first goal was as a result of him not being able to hold the ball when it rebounded off his body. He made another mistake later in the game but Dawson saved his blushes with that one, kicking the ball clear.

Spurs were just one minute away from the end of added time when their achilles heel struck again. A long cross to the far post and Torres lept higher than both Dawson and Chimbonda to beat Robinson with a downward header at his near side. I just knew it was going to happen because Spurs haven't beaten the top four teams away from home in fourteen years. The only positive is that I was certain Liverpool would win so at least we achieved one point. With Fulham losing, that takes us out of the relegation zone! Played 9 Points 7. Oh bugger.

I loved Robbie's attitude after the game where he was asked about Martin Jol's position. He looked peeved with the interviewer and basically said he was fed up with the continued questioning about his manager. Good on ya Rob!
