Tottenham Hotspur http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Dawson-c25288 disappointed after playing out a draw with Blackpool – EPL news
Tottenham Hotspur centre-back, Michael Dawson, has mourned the draw against Blackpool, saying that Spurs have made life difficult for themselves. He was left extremely gutted after the match and admitted that if he hadn’t committed that mistake, Spurs could
have emerged out as winners.
Tottenham and Blackpool played out a 1-1 draw when the two sides met on Saturday, May 07, at White Hart Lane. It was all going smoothly until Michael Dawson handled the ball inside the box leading to Blackpool’s spot kick. Though it was saved by goalkeeper
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Heurelho-Gomes-c16173 at first, the Brazilian himself conceded a penalty which allowed the Tangerines to go into the lead in the 76th minute. Spurs finally got their equaliser in the 89th
minute through http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jermain-Defoe-c18359 to end the night all square at 1-1.
Dawson regretted the opportunity of closing the gap on Manchester City especially after the Citizens were beaten earlier in the day by a spirited Everton. He was apologetic towards the fans who were also equally disappointed.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 International further added, "We're all so disappointed after seeing the result at Goodison Park earlier in the day. I got a nudge and as I fell, I threw my hands in the air and the ball hit my hand. When I heard the whistle I was praying that
he was going to give a free-kick for the nudge, but then Gomes produced a world-class save and I thought I was off the hook.”
The 27-year-old confirmed that the Spurs will not be deterred by this result and will go all out against Manchester City in their next game on Tuesday, May 10,
at the City of Manchester Stadium.
He concluded by saying, "We need three wins now if we're going to make that top-four spot. We've got a good record at City and we've got to try and get the three points there first and see where it takes us with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 and Birmingham to follow. We'll
give it our all.”
Tottenham are now fifth in the League table with 56 points and are six points adrift of the fourth placed Manchester City.
