Match Summary Gazza lives up to the hype, single-handedly taking Spurs through. For the winner he shimmies past a tackle before rolling home. Ex-England star Chambo’s cross-shot had Terry Venables’ side reeling. Future Fratton boss Fenwick hurts an ankle in the warm-up and future Fratton star Justin Edinburgh wears 2.
