The video of this most amazing goal straight from a Tottenham kick off comes courtesy of Facebook – just click on the link below for the entire sequence from kick off to goal – in around five seconds.
Before the game the league table looked like this…
| Team | P | W | D | L | F | A | GD | Pts | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Chelsea | 10 | 8 | 0 | 2 | 24 | 8 | 16 | 24 |
| 2 | Manchester United | 10 | 7 | 1 | 2 | 21 | 11 | 10 | 22 |
| 3 | Arsenal | 9 | 6 | 1 | 2 | 29 | 13 | 16 | 19 |
| 4 | Tottenham Hotspur | 10 | 6 | 1 | 3 | 21 | 14 | 7 | 19 |
First we have the van Persie goal on 42 minutes.
Then Tottenham kick off in a lazy, undisciplined manner, and Cesc alert as ever gets the ball back for Arsenal, beats the entire Tottenham defence and scores.
