Tottenhams pursuit of the final Champions League spot looks to be all but over following a 2-1 defeat at the hands of London rivals Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Goals from Frank Lampard and Salomon Kalou helped overturn Sandros stunning 19th minute strike, although the game was full of incident, particularly in relation to a sistant referee Mike Cairns decision late in the first half. Cairns adjudged Lampards long range effort to have cro sed the line, although subsequent replays clearly contradict this.The decision was a blow to Spurs who looked in control Junior Bridgeman Jersey for large periods of the first half, with Gomes only forced into action on a couple of occasions. However, the part the goalkeeper played in Chelseas first goal will once again result in the Brazilians position as Spurs number one being called into question, following the poor handling of Lampards shot which resulted in the equaliser.Chelseas winner in the final minutes was also surrounded by controversy, with Kalou being ruled onside Cameron Reynolds Jersey as he tapped home Didier Drogbas wayward shot. This decision was le s clear cut than the one in the first half however, and Chelsea will argue that they deserved all three points, having had several second half efforts on the Spurs goal repelled. In contrast Tottenham supporters and manager Harry Redknapp will feel hard done-by, and disappointed that they did not salvage at least a point from the game, which has effectively ended their chances of qualifying for the Champions League for a second consecutive season.Player RatingsHeurelho Gomes 5Not the Brazilians finest game, as he was at fault for Lampards goal, and shaky from then onwards. One good save from E siens header in the first half.Younes Kaboul 6Looked relatively comfortable throughout, although Thanasis Antetokounmpo Jersey lacked invention and conviction going forward. Didnt link up often enough with Lennon down the right.William Gallas 7Solid in the centre of defence, marshalled Drogba and the fresh faced Fernando Torres well.Michael Dawson 7The Spurs captain once again put in an a sured performance, against a threatening looking strike force. Deserves to be considered for Englands upcoming games on this seasons performances.Vedran Corluka 6Defended reasonably well, although tired in the second half and looked out of sorts before coming off injured.Aaron Lennon 6Offered decent protection to Kaboul when Ashley Cole pushed on down the flanks. Never given the opportunity to attack down the right though, and was kept a peripheral figure throughout.Sandro 8 Spurs Star ManSpurs best player on the day and capped a fine performance with a superb strike from distance. Worked tirele sly throughout and will go from strength to strength having broken into the side.Luka Modri 7Showed glimpses of what he can Pau Gasol Jersey do and looked lively in the first half. Faded in the second period where he began to receive le s of the ball.Gareth Bale 6The PFA player of the year never really got going against Chelsea, with only a couple of driving runs that brought the away fans to their feet. Went to left back late Vin Baker Jersey on after Corluka went off injured.Rafael Van Der Vaart 6The Dutchman struggled to a sert himself on the game, although provided a deft touch that set up Sandro for his goal.Roman Pavlyuchenko 6It was always going to be difficult for him to provide a great threat to Chelseas backline as he worked tirele sly up front alone.Jermain Defoe (Sub) 5 Started off lively with a jinking run and shot, but found it difficult to get hold of the ball later on.Jermaine Jenas (Sub) 5Worked hard in defence but offered little going forward.Steven Pienaar (Sub) 5Not enough time for the South African to make an impact on the game.
