Before game:
65 points: Tottenham (4.th in League)
64 points: Arsenal (5.th in League)
At the same time, West Ham were hosting Tottenham who had all to play for but West Ham on the other hand had nothing to play for. A win was meaningless to them in the sense that they wouldn't go higher up the table.
Tottenham players appeared to be sick (some sort of stomach illness) and they lost the game that would have taken them in the first time to the champions league AND finish above Arsenal for the first time since 1989-1990 !
After game:
67 points: Arsenal (4.th)
65 points: Tottenham (5.th)
:)
Ps. During the West Ham and Tottenham game a certain Sheringham missed a really soft penalty for West Ham against his old club (surprise surprise)
