Tottenham Hotspur recorded consecutive Premier League wins by coming from behind to beat Queens Park Rangers at White Hart Lane this afternoon.
An Alejandro Faurlin own goal and a Jermain Defoe strike within the space of two minutes cancelled out Bobby Zamora's opener for the visitors as Spurs climbed to eighth in the table.
However, Mark Hughes may think that his hard-working side's impressive performance warranted them at least a point.
Here, Sports Mole offers some analysis on the match.

Was the result fair?
Probably not. Spurs were slow out of the blocks, with Rangers out-passing and outworking them during the first half. Their goalscoring chances were limited, but differently, Spurs were able to create many more opportunities when they were on top in the second period. A point would have been fair, but the hosts will be relieved to pick up their first home win of the season.
Spurs's performance
A tale of two halves. I think AVB would admit to getting his team selection wrong by naming Gareth Bale at full-back. With the Welshman out of the action, Spurs struggled to create anything of note in the opening 45 minutes. A half-time reshuffle changed the game and Bale, playing in his usual left-wing role, along with Aaron Lennon proved a real threat for Spurs. Jan Vertonghen impressive at the back again, with Defoe deadly in front of goal as ever.
QPR's performance
Apart from a two-minute lapse, the Hoops were excellent throughout. Hard-working in midfield, organised and determined in defence, they proved hard for Spurs to break down in the opening period. Bobby Zamora had a fine game leading the line, but lacked high-quality support as Junior Hoilett proved a little wasteful in front of goal. Plenty and plenty of positives for Hughes though, including goalkeeper Julio Cesar. The Brazilian is turning out to be an inspired bit of business.
Sports Mole's man of the match
Aaron Lennon. The winger probably owes this award to the old adage that the MOM prize almost exclusively goes to a member of the winning side. He was a real threat down the Tottenham right and led the Spurs counter attack with pace and intent. Had QPR left with a deserved draw, Clint Hill would almost certainly have taken this accolade after a flawless performance on his return to the Rangers defence.
Biggest gaffe
Some own goals are difficult to avoid, but not Faurlin's this afternoon. The creative midfielder, anticipating a heavy challenge from William Gallas, turned his back on the ball, which deflected off him and into the net.
Referee's performance
Neither side will have any complaints. What Phil Dowd needed to do, he did well, and he was patient before drawing for the yellow card, which is always nice to see. Well done that man.
What next?
Spurs:
Two contrasting away trips. Firstly they travel to Carlisle United in midweek in the Capital One Cup, before visiting Old Trafford to face Manchester United next Saturday evening.
QPR:
Rangers too have cup commitments, against top-flight Reading on Wednesday, before they go in search of their first Premier League win of the campaign against West Ham United at Loftus Road.
