In the latest edition of the north london derby, it was a tale of two halves. Arsenal had a good first half and domuinated it. They went in at half time leading 2-0 and it seem like their unbeaten home record against Spurs will continue. At half time, Redknapp and a substution and brought on Defoe. This changed the game totally. Five minutes into the half, Bale continue his great form by pulling a goal back. Then on the 67min, Fabregas foolishly lifted his hand to block a Van Der Vaart free kick and resulted in a penalty which the Dutchman put away to level the score. The scoring did not end and five minutes from time, Kaboul headed home the winner.
With three home defeat already this season, Arsenal title challenged took a huge dent and looks like almost ending before the half way mark. Congratulation to Spurs.

It was a great comeback from Spurs but all the teams at the top seem to be dropping points so i do not think that Arsenal are out of the title race just yet.

I am happy for Spurs. Not only because they beat Arsenal, but I am so happy to see how Van der vaart play. I think he has a lot of influence since he came to Spurs. His passing is incredible. Look at how the first goal scored. The first touch from Van der vaart, then he gave the pass to Bale. Perfect pass so that Bale scored the first goal for Spurs. The second goal was scored by himself. And the third goal, coming from Van der Vaart freekick. His freekick was dangerous.
So, for me, he was man of the match. Great win for Spurs! Congratulation.

I don't know what is with Spurs, but they seem to have tremendous finishes. We all remember the game against Inter, when they scored 3 times in the second half, and now we see them scoring again 3 times in the second half and even winning, after being two goals down. Maybe Redknapp has a great talent to motivate them or it means that they have more physical strength than other teams.

yes, congratulation to Spurs.
A great game, Arsenal continued to look like a team of children who do not know how to keep a result.

Yup, Tottenham sure is good this year. I am kind of surprised about it, to be honest, but nice for them!
