Eriksen got the lead role in the new downturn

the Christian Eriksen must have given José Mourinho the bit to speculate in the forward to the new year.

the Dane was a starter in the Premier League for the first time in nearly two months and returned the favor by scoring directly on a free kick against the drain plug Norwich as Tottenham disappointing had to settle for 2-2 against Teemu Pukki and co.

Eriksen with the impending end of contract has otherwise been relegated to the bench in the previous eight matches in the Premier League, but suspensions for Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko and Son Heung-Min got Mourinho to give Eriksen a chance from the start.

It was portugiseren well satisfied with the ten minutes after the break, when Eriksen fired a free-kick from the edge of the box in the box behind Tim Krul and equalized Norwich lead. The ball was well enough cut of the wall, but there was, after all, never doubt that Christian eriksen's should be attributed to its first score in the Premier League since the match against Arsenal 1. september - and just his second this season.


Tottenham played a terrible first half, where Norwich totally deserved brought himself in front 1-0 after 18 minute of the game.

A proper roar of argentine Juan Foyth and a mysterious bakkende defense gave Mario Vrancic opportunity to udplacere tottenham's goalkeeper, Paulo Gazzaniga, with an otherwise halvsvagt kicks.

Before the break reached Teemu Pukki also to double the lead. It is believed he and the rest of the Carrow Road at least, but WAS struck yet once again, and cancelled the goal, because the fin armpit found themselves in a punishable offside position.

A hopeless Tottenham effort before the break, and then swung It otherwise, the axe in the break and pulled Juan Foyth and Jan Vertonghen out for the benefit of the Davinson Sanchez and the more offensive Lucas Moura.

Christian eriksen's straighter free-kick brought Mourinhos troops back in the fight, but only until Toby Alderweireld and Serge Aurier in the community got klovnet the ball in his own net.

Own goal by ivorianeren, and so looked like a rare victory for The Canaries. Especially because Tottenham did not managed to threaten Tim Kruls goal despite large spilovertag. Not until Christoph Zimmermann somewhat awkward overturned Harry Kane in the box. Penalties for Tottenham, as Kane himself put to his 11. sæsonscoring.

Closer to a win came to Tottenham, but Christian Eriksen, however, to ensure a rare yellow card to the collection before the closing time.

the Result means that Norwich tails slightly into the remaining bundhold, while Tottenham missed the chance of a lifetime to take over fourth place from Chelsea, who on Sunday meet Arsenal at stamford bridge.
