My first away fixture this year. Confidently expecting that however many all-conquering Spurs were going to score our scoreline was most assuredly going to be "nil", imagine my surprise when Rondon scores with an oh-so-slow-motion poke past Lloris with our first attack when I was taking my seat.
Thought we defended with great resolve against a Spurs side who did look a little hungover after their great midweek win at Dortmund. Everyone looked keen to put in a shift after the Pulis era. I felt the players with a London connection, Livermore, Phillips and Gibbs all played like they had something to prove.
Foster riled the home crowd like never before and I was amazed it took until the 80th minute to get a booking. OK if you are a Baggie fan, but infuriating otherwise.
This result should serve to show we have enough to pull us out of the mess. We have 6 matches to half way and some very winnable games if we can replicate this form.
