Harry Rues Missed Chances

Last updated : 08 December 2009 By Sam

Spurs looked to have sealed an away win with second half goals from Jermain Defoe and Michael Dawson but Everton fought back to 2-2.

Spurs still had a great opportunity to seal victory but Defoe missed a stoppage time penalty.

"It was game over wasn't it at 2-0? They were never going to get back in the game, really," Redknapp told Sky Sports after the game on Sunday evening. 

"I felt we gave a sloppy goal away and suddenly, credit to them, we were ruing the opportunities we had missed to really kill the game off.

"The crowd got right behind them at 2-1 and gave them a lift and they had a real go and obviously got the second goal.

"We got a great opportunity with the penalty to sew the game up, but it wasn't to be.

"That can happen. People can miss penalties. Defoe didn't mean to miss the penalty."
