LONDON: Striker Peter Crouch admits Tottenham must prove again they have the ability to keep pace with his former club Liverpool in the Premier League.

LONDON: Leeds United’s great FA Cup run finally came to an end as they went down 3-1 to Tottenham in a fourth round replay at Elland Road this morning. A hattrick by Jermain Defoe — who could easily have scored more — was enough to end the League One side’s resistance in a pulsating clash.

LONDON: Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp knows what they will be up against at Leeds in the FA Cup fourth round replay tomorrow morning.

LIVERPOOL: Striker Dirk Kuyt's double strike injected new life into Liverpool's stuttering Premier League campaign as they beat Tottenham 2-0 at Anfield this morning.

LONDON: Tottenham goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes takes great pride from equalling the club record of consecutive clean sheets but insists results are all that really matter.
