A win for Spurs in this game would have put them level on points with us so it was crucial that we came away with the win. It was Luis Suarez who struck first after he tried to set up Jordan Henderson, the pass was intercepted but the midfielder managed to find Suarez who cut past two players to put the ball in the back of the net. Phil Coutinho then hit the bar and Glen Johnson follow up just skimming past the post. Nacer Chadli then had a free header at the front post from a Lewis Holtby corner but it went over the bar.
