Portsmouth 1-1 Tottenham


Well the last day of my holiday was taken up with a football match, and I can think of no better way to end the holiday. So to the pub and what a busy pub it was ….bloody busy, I got a drink and got a good seat to watch the football on a BIG screen. When my mum arrived the pub was even busier and to top that one of the bars tills went down but we got our drinks.
To the match this was a poor game both teams looked tired and as the match went on it looked like it was going to be a draw that was until Benjani Mwaruwari put Portsmouth ahead with a right foot shot from 20 yards out that was aided by a Callum Davenport deflection. There was little festive spirit early on as Hossam Ghaly was left with a bloody mouth after receiving a kick to the face from Noe Pamarot - one of four ex-Tottenham players in the Pompey Hossam Ghaly lost four teeth ouch!
The second half was better untill Spurs got a goal back with a good header from Steed Malbranque the rest of the game wes a real mess with both sides failing to score. It did hack down with rain at times getting us wet and the lino to and ask him if he wanted a hat to keep his bold head dry? But he shook his head and we had a laugh with that, so we got a hard earned point at home to keep us in sixth place so its to the FA Cup at Fratton Park this Saturday against Wigan and I hope we have a good run in that.
