Spurs Held By West Brom At Wembley
Striker Harry Kane said Tottenham’s performance was “not good enough” after his late equaliser denied managerless West Brom an important win at Wembley.
Spurs fell behind on four minutes as Jake Livermore played in Rondon, who nudged off Davinson Sanchez and rolled the ball past Hugo Lloris.
But England forward Kane finally broke the visitors’ resistance by tapping a Dele Alli cross through Ben Foster’s legs on 74 minutes.
The draw leaves Spurs 10 points behind leaders Manchester City and five behind second-placed Manchester United.
“It leaves us quite far behind in the league,” said Kane, who has been involved in 100 Premier League goals in 128 games.
“We have to look back and see why we were slow getting going in the first half. But it’s not good enough.”
Kane’s equaliser denied the away side a first victory in any competition since August and they are now 12 games without a win, a point ahead of 18th-placed West Ham.
The match came six days after West Brom sacked manager Tony Pulis, with his former assistant Gary Megson in temporary charge and Alan Pardew favourite for the job.
Former Bolton boss Megson had not managed a Premier League team since 2009.
He told Match of the Day: “The players are in tomorrow, but whatever else goes on is nothing to do with me.”
