Tottenham Hotspur defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 at Goodison Park, and has slated the team’s inability to see games off.
The Frenchman was unable to hide his disappointment after Tottenham were given a shock in the final minutes of the game. The visitors had taken the lead, and were cruising up until stoppage time.
A Clint Dempsey strike had given Tottenham a 0-1 lead in the second half when the American international scooped his effort over a helpless http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tim-Howard-c35095. Everton started attacking to try and salvage something out of the game, and it looked like they would
exit the game empty handed.
It all changed when a 90th minute http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nikica-Jelavic-c27906 fired home a neat finish, sending the home crowd
into a state of frenzy.
Everton had turned the game around, and secured all three points. The defeat puts Tottenham at 5th, trailing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 by 3 points and Everton on goal difference.
Tottenham had been level on points with the Blues going into the game, and this was a glorious opportunity for them to stay level with the European champions. However, they have now dropped out of the top 4, much to the disappointment of Gallas.
Tottenham have conceded 9 goals in the last 10 minutes of matches this season, and Gallas has bemoaned the lack of urgency and carelessness in these last few games. Speaking to reporters, he said:
“We have to pass one more step to be on the same level as the top three and I don’t know when it is going to happen. I hope it will this season but it’s a shame because when we get very near, something always happens and we draw or lose.”
“In our squad we have some players that have experience now so I don’t think it is about a lack of maturity. For example, yesterday we did almost everything right but they scored that goal which killed us. It is difficult to explain but sometimes you need
luck.”
