Debutant Darren McQueen came on ten minutes from the end of the game and
grabbed a goal to round off a 2-0 win for Spurs. A youthful Under-18 side contained two Under-16s and the Under-15 McQueen were well in control against Portsmouth as they struck the woodwork on three occasions before they finally broke the deadlock with Paul Jose-Mpoku crossing for Laste Dombaxe to net in the 65th minute. With five minutes remaining, McQueen marked his entrance into the action with a 20 yard shot to make it 2-0. Teams : |
11.01.2010 | Spurs Youth made a
Fourth Round exit from the FA Youth Cup at the hands of Portsmouth at
White Hart Lane. In a match in which Spurs had the majority of the
chances, a single goal settled the tie in the visitors’ favour. On a chilly night, the game took a while to warm up, with Portsmouth going close with a seventh minute Goddard free-kick flying over the bar from 20 yards and then Dean Parrett forced Liam O’Brien to save his low drive that looked as though it might curl in from 25 yards out four minutes later. With quarter of an hour gone, Ryan Fredericks broke down the right and beat his marker, then cut inside to hit a shot that the Pompey goalie pushed out. Halfway through the half, Nlundulu slung in a cross to the far post from the right and Martin took the ball down before losing his cool and firing too high. The play changed to the other end and Fredericks played a low ball into the area, but Parrett’s shot was over the bar. Shots from Jake Nicholson and Paul-Jose Mpoku were hit straight at O’Brien and then a long ball up-field was missed by Stephen Caulker and Martin got in behind to fire just over the goal. In typical cup-tie tradition, it was end to end, with Spurs breaking straight away and Parrett played in Mpoku, but his shot was once more too near the keeper. With five minutes to the break Mpoku went closer, forcing the O’Brien to stretch and fingertip his drive over the crossbar with another effort a minute later when Tom Carroll surged into the box and his low ball in was met by Fredericks, beating Tsovolos and Nagri to the ball, but only managing to nudge the ball wide. Portsmouth had a good chance before the teams went off and Ciftci released Nlundulu on the right wing, before cutting inside to fire an effort that was heading in until Jamie Butler pushed it over. The second half started with Spurs on the attack, as John Bostock set up Harry Kane for a shot that went way too high and then Carroll put a ball into Kane on the left hand side of the area and he tried to beat the keeper at his near post, but O’Brien had it covered. The goalie was in action again in the 51st minute, when he did well to keep out Jesse Waller-Lassen’s shot and then from the corner, he pushed Caulker’s header over the top. Caulker again troubled O’Brien with a header, capitalising on a mis-hit shot from Bostock with 53 minutes gone. An attack on the Pompey left saw Ciftci create some space for a shot and the ball curled in past Butler with 62 minutes on the clock. Spurs needed to get a goal back and pressurised the Portsmouth goal for the remaining 30 minutes. Shortly after the goal, Bostock fired in a low cross that forced Nagri into slicing the ball over his own bar from close range, then, after Kane’s right wing cross cleared everyone in the area, O’Brien reacted well to get a hand to Carroll’s shot and take it over the bar. With a quarter of an hour to go, Parrett bent a 20 yard shot wide and then Fredericks hit a cross-shot that went close to going in and close to Bostock’s lunge, but missed both. O’Brien was the saviour for Pompey once more, when Carroll put in a ball from the left and Kane met it with a header that the keeper grabbed with a dive to his right. When the keeper was finally beaten by a shot, Portsmouth still had a clean sheet, as Kudos Oyenuga seized on Gregory’s error and curled around the keeper, but also around the post. In the last minute of normal time, Parrett’s right wing free-kick found Oyenuga’s head, but he could not get over it and the ball rippled the roof of the net. There was one more opportunity in added time, when Bostock played McBride in on the right wing and he fired a low ball across goal, which was nearly touched in by Oyenuga at the near post, but the ball ran away and with it Tottenham’s Youth Cup chances for another season.

17.04.2009 | it was a
young substitute - Darren McQueen - who won the game for Spurs with a
late goal to see off Portsmouth in their away FA Premier Academy League
fixture.
The pitch was not ideal, being dry and bumpy, but Spur adapted well and kept hold of the ball well, as well as creating chances for Kudus Oyenuga, Paul Jose M'Poku and Alex Pritchard to all hit the frame of the goal, but the teams turned around goal-less at half-time. Spurs continued to control the game and scored on 65 minutes when M'Poku crossed for Laste Dombaxe to take the ball down with a good touch and finish clinically. As the team tired, Pompey started to press for an equaliser, but with 10 minutes remaining, 14 year old Darren McQueen came off the bench to score his first Spurs goal five minutes later to move past a defender and hit the ball home from outside the box to wrap up the 2-0 win.

29.03.2008 | A run of
ten consecutive wins came to an end as Spurs succumbed to Portsmouth 2-3
away. It took a goal just before half-time to give the home side the lead, but ten minutes into the second period, Tottenham hit back with a goal from Danny Rose, when he ran through onto a long pass and took it on to score. Parity lasted only a short time, as Portsmouth regained the lead with a goal, although a 70th minute leveller at 2-2 from Kyle Fraser-Allen came from Rose's cross and was neatly placed into the bottom corner of the goal with a shot bent round the keeper. Spurs then went for the winning goal, but left themselves open at the back, leaving an opportunity for Pompey to net the winner. Tottenham were without some regular starters and had to draft in some Under-16s, but the tiredness they exhibited mentally and physically showed in their performance and the end result. Teams : |

Spurs played very well to see off Portsmouth to achieve a 3-0 away win in the South-East Counties Division 1. The team dominated Portsmouth and it was a fine all-round performance that should have reaped a bigger win. The team were set on the way halfway through the first half when Glenn Hoddle scored a spectacular goal from a free-kick that ended up in the top corner. The second period saw Spurs go on to add goals from Gary Hymas, who started the move by winning the ball in his own half before bursting forward 70 yards with it to fire home. Late into the match, Gary Bacon's free-kick from near the corner flag was headed in for Hoddle's second to round off the victory. Spurs – Cranstone, I. Smith, M. Stead, Keeley, Walford, Barwick, King, Hoddle, Robinson, Bacon, Hyams. . Teams : |
