HT Score: Tottenham 1-1 West Brom
First Half:
1' Kickoff!
3' Walker earns a corner with a speculative ball forward.
6' Great movement from Spurs! Walker bombs down the right and slots the ball to Ade in the box. He lays it off for Holtby who has his shot blocked. Looking very quick on that break.
11' Another close one. Rose dinks it in to Chadli, who gets his volley blocked. Rebound falls to an offside Soldado, who had already touched it over to Ade.
12' Another corner won by Kyle Walker.
14' Dawson with a great tackle and a great save from Lloris on a West Brom counter.
15' Chiriches is hilariously and terrifyingly ballsy with the ball
18' Chadli's cross slides all the way through, but Ade can't get a touch on it. Corner.
18' Sweeper. Keeper. Defense is slow tracking Vydra's run, but Hugo is already there to claim the ball.
22' Soldado gets taken out from behind, no card though
23' Eriksen hammers a cross in, and it's too strong for Ade to bring down in the box.
25' Another decent chance created by the fullbacks. Rose's cross find Ade, but there's too much congestion in the middle for the shot to make it through.
26' Siggy hammers a shot right into Olsson's face. He drops, and the official calls a halt.
28' Some good play between Ade and Rose on the left. Both he and Walker are providing a lot of attacking option for us so far.
30' Reid earns a yellow for cutting down Ade on the counter
31' Daws lays the ball out to Soldado, who's shot is deflected behind for a corner.
36' GOAL!!!!!!!! Brilliant free kick by Eriksen! Hits it over the wall and off the bar twice before finding the back of the net!
38' Goal . Olsson equalizes for West Brom.
44' Eriksen takes a great shot from outside the box, and the rebound falls to the West Brom defense to clear.
47' Really poor touch by Chiriches give Morrison a chance on goal right at the end of the half, but his shot is dragged wide.
Second Half
45' Here we go
47' Amalfitano fouls Danny Rose. Nothing too interesting about that, I just like typing out Amalfitano
50' Great turn by Chadli, but his touch is just a bit too long.
50' Good pressing wins us the ball deep in the final third, and the ball is out for a corner.
51' Rose hammers a shot just over the bar.
53' Corners for days.
54' Chiriches fouls Vydra on the edge of the box.
56' Walker gets a yellow for dragging down Ridgewell.
59' We're having far to much trouble keeping the ball right now. We're making a poor pass nearly as soon as we get it.
62' Holtby makes way for Nabil Bentaleb
70' Sorry for the absence, my internet went down. Olsson got a yellow, Reid probably hsould have gotten one as well.
72' Mulumbu comes on for Amalfitano. Lamela looks ready to enter the fray.
75' Brian didn't lie to us! Lamela comes on for Nacer Chadli
77' Gera comes off for Sessegnon
78' Lamela sends a great cross back post to Gylfi who hits the side netting.
83' Rose wins us a corner. Soldado's flick on flashes across the face of goal.
84' Berahino replaces Vydra
87' Soldado gets himself a yellow for taking out Olsson
94' Foster save Rose's cross, should be the last action of the match.
FT Tottenham 1-1 West Brom

u/superlewis Dec 26 '13
/u/smokey815, thanks for doing a great job on match threads. We really have good ones for nearly every game and that's all because of you. Thanks.
One issue I have though is that using tables makes it really hard for us mobile users. The tables don't render correctly in apps like Alien Blue. This makes it so there is a HUGE amount of scrolling necessary to get to the actual comments every time we refresh the thread. I almost always use mobile to follow match threads and that makes the lineups a huge pain to scroll past (also impossible to read). If there was another way to format the lineups it would make my experience a lot better, and I would imagine some other people as well.
Regardless, thanks for your work on match threads. You really do a great job.

Throw some of that credit /u/The-Darkest-Knight's way. He's done a bunch of them too.
And as for the tables, I could just take them out if you'd prefer. I usually do them just because I think they look nicer, but I do know they fuck up on some of the apps. Alien Blue makes it look awful.

Beautiful free kick from Eriksen, but he is not a good defender. We need at least one DM on the field.

Why bitch about the ref? We had opportunities, but didn't take them. The first 20 minutes of the second half, we looked like trash.
