Lennon slays Blues
Those 'White Hot Lane' headlines could not be more appropriate as Tottenham beat Birmingham 2-1.
If you want thrills in the Barclays Premier League at the moment then Tottenham is the place to be as Aaron Lennon's winner in the last throes of injury time kept Spurs' 100% record intact.
It was only right and just.
Tottenham were the better team. They played the fancy football. They showed all the ambition.
And it would have been cruel in the extreme if Lee Bowyer's second half tap-in had mugged them just when they had appeared to have done all the hard work.
The truth is Tottenham should have won this wonderfully entertaining match by a landslide.
They rained shots in on Joe Hart's goal all afternoon.
Ironic, in the end, however, that they were thankful to the Route One option provided by substitute Peter Crouch - who came on and gave them the lead with a trademark towering header.
