Should of been flagged, 2 Arse players at least a yard or two offside.

I think that's it for Spurs, I think they had to score first.

And they have, only in the wrong goal 

Spurs look pretty hopeless.

 

 

Hopefully the Spuds can pull themselves together second half and scrape a draw but yes they look woeful.

 

Really, 7 attempts for Arse, 1 on target, and 3 attempts for Spuds, 0 on target. I get that it is a London derby and these are different, but both teams look shocking, especially Spurs who are totally lost in the pitch.

How I would love to play these two teams in the next two weeks.

You've got to give credit to Spurs, that was a beautifully struck goal by Wimmer.

Howard Webb called the goal good even though players were offside when ball was kicked?

Someone explain this to me?

Surely the flag should have gone up straight away without waiting for the Spuds own goal?

Kos is filth and Clattenberk is a moron.

Yessss penalty !!

1-1

Good!

And my Arsenal supporting mate thinks Koscielny is the best CB in the PL haha

Can't believe am getting excited for the Spuds, I feel dirty.

Spurs playing much better than Arse at the moment, and having better chances. I hope it stays like this.

Presumably the two offside players weren't considered to have impacted play, which is odd as it's hard to make a case for Wimmer doing that if he wasn't under pressure from said offside players.

Say three hail Osgoods and be on your way.

I am currently in a pub where there is an Arsenal fan who is calling his own players "f**king idiots" for not scoring chances. Kinda rooting for Spurs as well... I'm not comfortable with this.

I can only imagine then that if Wimmer had left the ball, the flag would then have gone up.

Damn arsene going all in 

#ARSTOT...

 

Quite possibly the worst of the acronym faceoffs.

Lol Robin about to come in for Spurs

100% agree. Which is why the current rules need updating. I'm all in favour of the law that says a player is not offside if he's not interfering, but as you say, Sanchez (not offside as the law currently stands because he didn't challenge for the ball) did interfere with the defender by making him take him into account when going for the header. On BT Howard Webb explained the current law, but Ferdinand did a good job of highlighting what's wrong with it.

I'm not actively cheering on either side tbh. I would rather Spurs win if one has to but 1-1 I hope it remains.
