* The modest Tottenham utmost to defeat the sixth Stoke City

Tottenham still does not know the word victory in the season which leads the Premier League. The certified by Juande Ramos yesterday their sixth defeat to Stoke, a recently promoted which occupies the penultimate position of the table. The statistic that every Monday becomes the manchego in the form of headlines no longer over yes: the Spurs have gone from starter to confirm the worst season since the sinking of the Titanic (1912) to the worst start of all time.

The team yesterday visited the area of Stoke was a reflection of the inability to mix and misfortune that is undermining the spirit of Londoners. Tottenham started the match losing Gareth Bale and expulsion by fitting a penalty. Awoke with a bit of Darren Bent, but the result ended up moving towards Stoke's favor in the second half, when Rory Delap scored the while if it sank further to the Spurs.

The nightmare did not end in the final marker. The rest of the match was a succession of setbacks worthy of the worst curse possible. Croatian defender Vedran Corluka was hospitalized after a stroke occur in the chin in a clash with his own goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes. The player had to be helped in the field of medical services for more than 10 minutes and was taken to hospital by ambulance.

The episode even more disorienting to Tottenham, which ended up being punished for a second maximum penalty that Ricardo Fuller crashed into the two sticks, and lost another player for expulsion, Michael Dawnson, who minutes earlier had replaced Corluka in the field. On the other side of the coin, the fans of Stoke held pletóricos the second victory of the season, as if it were an angel from heaven. The two teams began the match separated by two points. It ended at Tottenham adrift at the bottom of the ranking with three points from Newcastle, the penultimate.
