Bottom team Tottenham knocks off top team Liverpool in EPL
November 2, 2008
Before I had a look at the results for the English Premier League I had a feeling the bottom place Tottenham Hotspur team would defeat the top placed Liverpool. I don’t know why but I guess it is the fairytale result you would expect after the struggling team is taken over by a new manager.
As it was Liverpool had taken an early lead after Dirk Kuyt scored after just two minutes. A Liverpool player scored again, unfortunately it was Jamie Carragher putting the ball into the Liverpool net to level the scores.
As the match appeared to be heading to a draw Roman Pavlyuchenko snatch a last-minute winner to take Tottenham off the bottom of the English Barclays Premier League. Since Harry Redknapp has taken over as manager the Spurs team has collected two wins and a draw.
Chelsea went back to the top of the league after thumping Sunderland 5-0. Manchester slipped into third place with an exciting 4-3 win over Hull City while Arsenal dropped all three points with a 2-1 loss to Stoke City.
In other matches Wigan Athletic defeated Portsmouth 2-1, WBA and Blackburn had a 2-2 result. Middlesbrough and West Ham United had a 1-1 draw and Everton defeated Fulham 1-0.
The loss to Tottenham was the first time Liverpool had missed out on some points this season.
