I disagree with the whole media take on the game, suggesting Spurs were well on top

all through the match. I do watch with a Norwich and River End bias but that just predisposes me to expect the worst.

Spurs were nothing like the threat they were in December, when it sometimes felt almost physically intimidating sat behind the goal with Bale rampaging forward. In this game Spurs seemed to offer not much more goal threat than Arsenal had and even the goal came out of nothing. In fact neither team got out of neutral until the last 20 minutes. Reporters seem to be suggesting that Spurs were comfortable, but so were Norwich and until the goal went in it looked to me like nil-nil and penalties.
