Tottenham Hotspur wins the League Cup

Tottenham manage to steal from Chelsea the first trophy of the season : The League Cup.They won the Cup last night on Wembley, with 2-1 and after extra periods.

Drogba manage to open the score with a free Kick from 28 meters but Spurs get back into the game in the second half.They played a good game and their efforts were rewarded in the 69 minute when Berbatov scored after a penalty awarded for Wayne Bridge’s handball.

The wining goal was scored in overtime (94 minute) by Woodgate.This is the first trophy for Tottenham Hotspur since 1999.The perfomance brings to Juande Ramos , the spanish manager of the Spurs a nice bonus : 375 000 euros, double than Avram Grant would get.

Juande Ramos declared after the match: “It’s been a long time since we’ve achieved success and for a club as big as Tottenham, such a period without a trophy seems even longer.To get a trophy in my first season in England is tremendously satisfying.”
