Continuing our pictorial round-up of the weekend’s Premier League action, we come to Fulham v Tottenham, and – disengages neutral mode – a triffic win for the mighty Lilywhites. It’s also Fulham’s first defeat of the season, after a stack of draws that Mark Hughes seemed way too pleased with.
The main talking point was Tom Huddlestone’s winner, which was disallowed then allowed, after the Hudd himself had done a good job of persuading the officials that when he shot from 25 yards out, team-mate William Gallas wasn’t actively offside. Rafael van der Vaart deserves a special mention for his assist for Tottenham’s opening goal – a tap-in for Roman Pavlyuchenko in the end – as it was so nearly a brilliant, instinctive lobbed goal.
