Half Time - Spurs lead 1-0 Van der Vaart's goal looked a bit handball-ish for me and as Sky Sports said, he wasn't very clever going and celebrating with the crowd (seen people booked for that and considering VdV's already on a yellow...). All in all, I think it was a pretty even first half - both sides had some good chances that weren't converted (Parker and Van der Vaart for Spurs, Gervinho in particular for Arsenal). Let's hope Spurs find a bit of rhythm after the break!
It his his chest quite clearly and he stopped before he ran into the crowd, SNIAW. The main wrong decision was Coquelin taking out Modric and us not even getting a foul.
If it had been off his chest, he wouldn't have been able to control it like that as it would have just rolled across his body. I don't think players should be booked for celebrating in the crowd but the fact is, they are and you want consistency from referees.
You can moan all your want but your defence is shocking! You have given us a game though....unlike Liverpool!
