Fulham 1 Tottenham 2

Tottenham produced a marvelous comeback at Craven Cottage to end Fulham's unbeaten streak and seal a third successive win in all competitions. The homeside drew first blood when Clint Dempsey moved neatly past a couple of our defenders to then slide it into the path of an oncoming Kamara for an easy finish. However, the equaliser came straight from kick off. Huddlestone sent the ball to Bale who crossed to Van der Vaart who then produced two neat left footed touches, turning Aaron Hughes followed up by a shot past and over the keeper which found the post, the rebound fell for Pav who tapped in the equaliser.
Second half was hard fought but the winning goal came from a corner that found Huddlestone who drilled the winner from the middle of the park, past Schwarzer albeit controversially as Gallas who was running offside tried to get a foot in thus putting off the keeper.
The win sees Spurs retain fifth spot but drawing level on points with Arsenal and United.
Our next fixtures see us travel to Italy to face Champions league holders Inter and then a visit from Everton followed by a visit to troubled United.
