Video: Tottenham Hotspur 5 – Norwich City 1 (Pre-season Friendly Highlights)

Norwich City 1, Tottenham Hotspur 5

Norwich City were routed tonight as Tottenham Hotspur’s Darren Bent stole the show in the friendly at Carrow Road.

After Jamie Cureton had equalised Dejan Stefanovic’s first half own goal, Bent grabbed his first at the end of the first half to give the visitors the lead going into the break.

And then it was all about the former Ipswich Town man in the second period as he completed his hat-trick before bagging a fourth as the Canaries were outclassed in the second half.

The capacity crowd were treated to the sight of five of City’s summer recruits in Stefanovic, Elliot Omozusi, Sammy Clingan, Ryan Bertrand and the impressive Wes Hoolahan, but they had no answer to the Premier League outfit who could afford to leave Dimitar Berbatov on the bench throughout.

Norwich City – Marshall, Otsemobor, Omuzusi, Stefanovic, Bertrand, Croft, Fotheringham, Clingan, Pattison, Hoolahan, Cureton. Subs: Nelson, Russell, Chadwick, Shackell, Martin, Renton, Eagle, Smith, Daley.

Tottenham Hotspur – Gomes, Gunter, Zokora, King, Jenas, Gilberto, Modric, O’Hara, Dos Santos, Bent, Dawson. Subs: Janson, Bale, Huddlestone, Lennon, Berbatov, Assou-Ekotto, Taarabt.
