All the action from Sunday's 2-1 win against Manchester City in the Barclays Premiership at Eastlands.


Martin Jol made four changes from the win against Dinamo Bucharest - Calum Davenport came in for suspended Michael Dawson (he picked up a fifth yellow card against Charlton), Lee Young-Pyo replaced Benoit Assou-Ekotto while Steed Malbranque and Teemu Tainio started in midfeld in place of Didier Zokora (suspended) and Aaron Lennon (knee). Young midfielder Jamie O'Hara was on the bench.

THE KEY ACTION...

1min: Good work from Lee and Malbranque down the left, Lee to the byline, fizzed in cross, Berbatov couldn't make a connection with attempted volley.

12mins: Weaver forced to flick away Huddlestone's corner with Davenport ready to atack it.

13mins: OFF LINE. Tainio threaded pass through to Defoe, who got behind Dunne and was through on goal, Dunne back to make fine sliding tackle, ball ran to Berbatov, tight angle, left-foot shot on target but Distin back to block on line.

16mins: GOAL - SPURS. Huddlestone curled in free-kick from the left, Davenport rose high to flick header into far corner beyond diving Weaver.
