Spurs get the point

03 October 2009 17:35
Tottenham's long-standing jinx at the Reebok Stadium continues but at least manager Harry Redknapp saw his side get some reward for a battling display as Bolton were held 2-2. The visitors went into the match without a win in nine attempts at the ground and fell behind in the second minute to a Ricardo Gardner goal, after failing to deal with a long throw from Jlloyd Samuel. But Spurs levelled when Wilson Palacios delivered the ball to Peter Crouch, who nodded it on and Niko Kranjcar sent a stunning shot into the net. Bolton then took the lead when Tamir Cohen chipped the ball to the back post and Kevin Davies headed in his third goal of the campaign. Tottenham almost drew level in the 72nd minute after Jussi Jaaskelainen spilled a shot from Defoe. The ball landed kindly at the feet of Crouch but his effort hit the bar. However, it was 2-2 a minute later, when the unmarked Vedran Corluka headed high into the net.
