Spus Win League Cup

What a difference a day makes. While yesterday was a terrible day in sports, today might be one of the all-time recent high points. I’m just pissed that I had so little faith that I didn’t wake up early to make it to Trinity Hall to see the game at 9:00am.

Today in their first trip to new Wembley Spurs beat Chel$ki 2-1 in extra time. From all accounts Spurs dominated the game but Chelsea had a 1-0 HT lead with a goal at the 38 minute mark. Spur came back in the second with a Berbatov shot at 69 minutes. The took the lead for good 2 minutes into ET with a Woodgate header off a Jenas free kick.

Is this the beginning for greater things? Since hiring Ramos the team has won 15 games with only 5 losses and 8 draws. Oddly Romos has never lost in a Cup final. This is the first major trophy since winning the League Cup in 1999 and guarantees a third straight trip to Europe. But that is next year, we are still alive in Europe being part of the round of 16 in the UEFA Cup. Net up is a tie with Dutch powerhouse PSV Eindhoven in March.

Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur
