What a refreshing treat to see soccer at its finest once again. One look at the highlights and you
know you're watching the best.
Also, no ties all weekend made for exciting results. Not to mention some world-class goals
(Tottenham's Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Didier Drogba of Chelsea, among others).
Eugh. Liverpool paid the price for a below-par performance at White Hart Lane on Sunday with a
disappointing 2-1 defeat at the hands of an impressive Spurs side. Benoit Assou-Ekotto opened the
scoring for the home side on the stroke of the break with a powerful drive into the top corner of
Pepe Reina's net.
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez was adamant his side should have been awarded a second penalty in
their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.
Spurs won the game courtesy of goals by Benoit Assou-Ekotto and Sebastien Bassong with Steven
Gerrard grabbing the Merseysiders' goal from the spot.
That was one of the most impressive Tottenham performances I have seen for many a year. I'm not
saying everything about the play was perfect but the way we kept our heads after the penalty was
exceptional. In previous seasons, we would have gone on to lose the game.
There are no two ways about it, Liverpool were completely outplayed.
