Premiership: Derby go one up

Latest score::

Tottenham 0

Derby 1 (Morris, 43)

Derby have gone one up in their match against Tottenham.

Manager John Gregory saw his side make a positive start and Luciano Zavango tried to release Malcolm Christie after just two minutes.

However goalkeeper Neil Sullivan was alert to the danger and steered the ball to safety.

Tottenham’s Tim Sherwood picked up the first booking of the game after five minutes for a challenge on Zavango.

Derby pushed forward again and Christie picked out Simo Valakari but his shot did not trouble Sullivan.

The Scotland shot-stopper then had to look lively to gather Christie’s effort at the second attempt with Ravanelli on hand for any slip-up.

Tottenham carved out their first attack in the 15th minute when Gustavo Poyet squared the ball to Teddy Sheringham. However his finish was wasteful.
