Premier League: Tottenham 2-0 Sunderland
Table of Contents
Darren Bent endured an afternoon of frustration as he missed a penalty for Sunderland in a 2-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.
Robbie Keane put Spurs ahead on 12 minutes as he bundled home from close range Peter Crouch's towering header back across goal from Benoît Assou-Ekotto's cross.
Sunderland had the perfect chance to level the scores at the start of the second-half when Bent was felled in the box after rounding Heurelho Gomes. The Brazilian keeper was fortuitous to escape with just a booking and then exacerbated Steve Bruce's wrath on the touchline as he brilliantly saved Bent's low spot-kick.
Tom Huddlestone then extended the advantage when his first-time shot from the edge of the area rattled the underside of the bar before flying into the roof of the net.
