Tottenham played out a bore draw at Goodison park today, as both sides struggled to maintain any significant attack on goal.Tim Howard broke a club record of 16 clean sheets in one season for Everton and always looked comfortable, with Spurs only managing to muster up4 shots, with just twoon target. Gareth Bales freekick was one ofTottenhams rarechances however the ball was sentcurling over the cro Tyler Chatwood Jersey sbar.The game was played out in hideous weather conditions as rain covered Merseyside and this did nothing to add to the quality of the match as both sides lacked that bit of skill in the final third.Injuries ravaged the Tottenham midfield with both Aaron Lennon and David Bentley suffering from aches and strains. Bentley later managed a place on the bench but Lennon mi sed out entirely. Palacios was also mi sing, so Tom Huddlestone came in to the starting X1 with Redknapp opting for a 5-3-2 system. The formation did nothing for Tottenhams attacking capabilities but Redknapp will no doubt be delighted with a rare away clean sheet.Everton played their strongest available squad though Phil Jagielka is out for the rest of the season. Joseph Yobo replaced him.Steven Pienaar had a good game in midfield and threatened the Tottenham defence with some dangerous through balls on a number of occasions butEverton strikerJo failed to really test Heurelho Gomes- despite the Brazilian keeper gifting the forward a chance in the second half. Gomes spilled Baines corner but he managed to gather the ball before Jo had a chance to score.Tim Cahill had a goodshot for Steve Cishek Jersey Everton but the sides best chance came in the 68th minute when youngsterDan Gosling hit the post with a stinging shot from the edge of the area. Jermain Defoe managed a shot just seconds later but mi sed wide of the right-handpost.Everton will no doubt be content with a point as their FA Cup final with Chelsea rapidly approaches but the draw damages Tottenhams Europa League hopes as they now fall 2 points behind city rivals Fulham. However Everton were probably the better side with Spurs failing to replicate some of Kosuke Fukudome Jersey their recent, electric form.Match FactsTeam Line-ups <match rating out of ten>Everton24 Howard <6>18 Neville <6>04Yobo <7>05Lescott <7>03Baines <7>32 Gosling <6> (Osman 69 <6>)26Rodwell <5>17Cahill <6>20Pienaar <7>25Fellaini <7>11Jo<7>(Saha 69 <5>)Substitutes not used;01 Nash,08 Castillo,14 Vaughan,15Jacobsen,38 WallaceTottenham01Gomes <6>22Corluka <6>26 King <7>39Woodgate <7>03 Bale <8>02 Hutton <6>06Huddlestone <5>08Jenas <6>14Modric<6> (Pavlyuchenko 81 <5>)15 Keane <6>25 Defoe <6>Substitutes not used;23Cudicini,05 Bentley,16 Gunter,18 Campbell,21Chimbonda,34 RosePo se sion: Everton:53% Tottenham:47%Shots (on target): Everton:15 (6) Tottenham:4(2)Corners: Everton: 4 Tottenham: 5Fouls: Everton:16 Tottenham:11Attendence: 36646Ref: Mr. L.
