of the Man City match, well first 10 minutes and last 20 minutes, and I have to say it gets better everytime I watch it. Never been so delighted with a defeat.
Both the so called contentious VAR decisions were 100 per cent correct in Spurs favour, no two ways about that. The five minutes of added time has to be the most exciting part for me, the disallowed goal, and even watching the replay, I was certain we were still going to concede after that again.
Astonishing finish, and right up there with our three best ever games with City, all ending in Spurs favour.
1981 Cup Final, Ricky Villa winning goal
2010 Peter Crouch winning goal
2019 Fernando Llorente goal to progress to CL semi-final
The last ever Quarter Final of the Elite European Club competition that Spurs won was way back in 1962 in the European Cup, when they beat Dukla Prague on the snow covered pitch at WHL 4-1, to progress on aggregate 4-2, a game I was at, that was an epic game as well. I am sure Genius, and a few others well remember that match. Spurs do tend to turn it on when they are on the European Stage.

I shall be stretching the legs on Sunday, Danny. I don`t have a garden now, so would be a bit hard to do any gardening.
The Great Outdoors is my forte, but I avoid it pretty well over bank holidays. Everyman and his dog will be out and about for the four days if this weather keeps up.

I have it recorded but have not been able to bring myself to watch it all again as yet - have only gotten to half-time.
What are your predictions for the upcoming league match??
Remember Sissoko is out of that, I think?

Incredible game. Strangely made more entertaining by VAR!
Have a look at the link below if you haven’t - it 100% hits Llorente on the elbow. Despite this though I still think it’s a fair goal and shouldn’t have been disallowed, there was no way in the world it was deliberate. Just an incredible game of football that either team could have won. Maybe we are finally having some luck this year?!

I would add the penalty shoot out at WHL against Bruges in the 80's to that list personally

Regardless it was given and who knows had it been disallowed we might still have scored.
We had started to push on a little at that stage because we knew we had to score and for all anybody knows had that goal been disallowed then we might still have scored again anyway.

Anderlecht was nail biting, but this was more about our games against Man City.

Our promotion game against Southampton in 1978 where it ended 0-0 was very stressful as well.
