In the intriguing London derby on Thursday, the winner was not determined - the ambitious teams "Tottenham" and "Chelsea", both aiming for the Premier League title, played to a 1-1 draw.
The Spurs started the match actively and soon it paid off: in the 8th minute, after a pass from Gareth Bale from the wing, John Terry failed to intercept Emmanuel Adebayor, who sent the ball into the net from a few meters away.
However, Chelsea did not falter and in the 23rd minute equalized when Daniel Sturridge turned Ashley Cole's pass into a goal.
Later, another 'Blues' attacker Didier Drogba skillfully stopped the ball with his chest, but shook the crossbar from a few meters away, while Ramires' shot was slightly off target.
The last opportunity was for Adebayor, but his shot was cleared off the goal line by Terry.
This result means that "Tottenham" (35 points) maintained third place in the league table, two points ahead of "Chelsea" (33 points) who are one step below. "Man City" still leads the table (44 points), followed by "Man Utd" (42 points).
