We deserved to win, just, if only because our penalty taking was noticeably better. Another clean sheet and a great display by Foster but Spurs have tightened up at the back and another edgy game is in prospect at OT if we do not sharpen up. ANother problem - Ronaldo, Scholes, Ferdinand, Nani, Evra and Tevez all played the full 120 minutes and looked knackered at the end. We could have done without that with the Barcodes next in line on Wednesday - not much recovery time. Oh and we have to go to the Riverside soon too - so save the beers and cheers until we improve on last season's last minute draw!
