Spurs were true to their big dog status and beat Young Boys in a comprehensive matter, in a match that was very entertaining, and that makes for very entertaining highlights as well.
A word of praise for Peter Crouch, who still seems to surprise a lot of people with his goalscoring abilities. A good old fashioned “center forward” who’s an expert and getting it in, full stop.

Tottenham lost but managed to avert disaster in this first leg of the Champions league play-off. Spurs were down 3-0 in the first half, courtesy of lack of pressure, lack of movement from the defense and a Young Boys squad that had them well scouted and knew how to play up their strengths and Spurs’ weaknesses. Senad Lulic, Henri Bienvenu and Xavier Hochstrasser scored for the Swiss, but Bassong in the first half and Pavlyuchenko in the second half, minutes before full time, reduced the Young Boys’ lead into something that’s manageable in the second leg.
