Gomes stars in cup stalemate

Mar 6 2010

Tottenham had Heurelho Gomes to thank for keeping them in their goalless FA Cup tie with Fulham at Craven Cottage that came alive in the second half.

Gomes made a string of fine saves as Fulham poured forward after the interval to earn his side a quarter-final replay at White Hart Lane on March 24.

The Brazilian prevented Bobby Zamora, Damien Duff, Brede Hangeland and Zoltan Gera scoring in a London derby that lacked any bite until a pulsating second period.
