Norwich got a goal in the 85th minute, with Mark Robins getting away on the right wing, going past two Spurs men and then sliding the ball towards goal, where Efan Ekoku forced it over the line, but it could not stop Spurs recording a comprehensive 5-1 win.

turned in a masterly display to send the Canaries flying back to Norwich
with very little to show from their visit to White Hart Lane.
Spurs were on the back foot early on, but Gary Lineker took David Howells' through ball around Norwich goalkeeper Bryan Gunn in the 24th minute to put Tottenham ahead. Howells got his head to a Nayim corner to put Spurs two up before the interval and it was 3-0 shortly after the break, when Lineker struck again, this time scoring in the same fashion thanks to Paul Walsh's pass. With 62 minutes elapsed, Lineker completed his hat trick as he tried to go around Gunn again, but was tripped and the England striker got up to slot the ball home from the penalty spot. Ex-Spurs Mark Bowen and Ian Crook could do little about the final result as could Tim Sherwood, who was at his second club and was later to join Spurs. Teams : |

03.12.1983 | Early goals levelled
matters in this game at Carrow Road, with Norwich grabbing a late winner
to take the points. Ally Dick and Keith Bertschin cancelled each other's goals out inside the first four minutes of the match at Carrow Road. Peter Mendham intercepted Glenn Hoddle's diagonal pass and put Bertschin in on goal and he finished with a low shot from 12 yards out in the third minute. However, within a minute, Dick picked up the ball on the left and went past two defenders before shooting past Chris Woods from a narrow angle to make it 1-1. Barham was denied a shooting opportunity with a fine tackle and Hoddle hit the stanchion with a volley, before Mark Falco made Woods dive to keep out a low shot. In the second half, Mick Channon picked up a yellow card for a foul on Hughton and then played Louis Donowa down the wing and his cross was headed narrowly wide by Bertschin, with Denis van Wyk hitting a 20 yard shot just wide soon afterwards. Steve Archibald brought the best out of Woods at the other end with a header that was very well saved and then should have done better when put clear by Hoddle's pass, but with Woods stranded, the Scot shot wide. With John Devine breaking up a Spurs move, he ran at the middle of the Spurs midfield and gave Mick Channon the chance to nick a winner, by slotting past Ray Clemence, with seven minutes left on the clock, thus ending Tottenham's run of nine games unbeaten.

visit by Norwich City for a First Division match came just seven days
after the two teams were to meet in the League Cup Final at Wembley. The result was an emphatic win for Tottenham, despite playing below par. Jimmy Pearce poked home an early goal, but it did not prompt any further goals in the first half, as Spurs struggled to maintain any sort of rhythm. The second half saw Tottenham play better and when Pearce was fouled in the penalty area, Martin Chivers stepped up to convert the spot-kick. It was Chivers again to make it 3-0 when Martin Peters and Pearce combined to set him up with a looping header over Kevin Keelan from eight yards out at the Park Lane end.
