Twenty-two years took
the faithful of White Hart Lane to sing that amazing tune of ‘North London is
ours’, thanks to their Spurs one of a kind campaign and its resolve.
Mauricio Pochettino and
company delivered another memorable afternoon of pure genuine football worth of
a champion, despite his boys trailing by four points behind league leaders and cross-town
foes, the Chelsea Blues.
Still the project
that Poche brought to these parts of London Town, is putting in evidence its
success one campaign at a time, the unfortunate side, the heartbreak of last campaign
downfall.
By seeing how the
Leicester City squad delivered history but their finish above their North London
foes the Arsenal Gunners and so far, their hopes are high with three matches left,
to see a Blues falter.
Therefore, the
hardened Lilywhites can rise to the occasion.
What a day for a
Derby and with these two titans fighting in every minute to put themselves in
the driver’s seat and go up the score as the locals almost did with two clear
misses from Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen.
Very well, a long-range
shoot from the Gunners Aaron Ramsey that in good timing by the Spurs keeper
Hugo Lloris stopped and prevented the visitors of opening the score to the joy
of their faithful.
Still this was a very
fought off match despite the local squad putting a dominance from start to
finish in a match considered as important in their race for the league shield
currently trailing and for those so called- London Town North bragging rights.
What a match and exhibition
displayed by this renewed and looking like a total contender in the Spurs under
their Argentina Boss hand, who has made a turnaround for the best in this parts
of the English capital.
If the outcome of
destiny favors Conte and his Chelsea bunch, not bad for a squad that in the past
spent, millionaire sums of money to lure the most expensive payrolls with no positive
results and disappointing finishes despite being in European competitions.
With a squad lacking an
identity in its game and a long haul project to make this squad a contender,
all of a sudden the arrival of this not so rookie Manager has transformed the
squad of White Hart Lane for the best and with more to come.
Anyway returning to today’s
match, the hunger of a determined Spurs 11 looking forward to close this with a
bang and a win that will keep them in the chase for the league title.
So far, the Spurs
with formidable winning streak and not giving up in their commitment of excellence
and become the top squad in years to come as Poche goals are being meet in
every campaign and this one doubling their number of wins.
As the hungry
Lilywhites coming strong in the second half with two scores from their main men
in the field, with Dele Alli on the 55 and later a penal that Harry Kane on the
58 converted for the go-ahead score.
This sealed the deal
and a valuable win that keeps the Tottenham squad on the hunt and with another
Derby coming against another arch-rival cross town squad in modest West Ham United, the heat is on
once again.
At the end, these resilient
and hard pushing Spurs are the new rulers in North London.
