Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Newcastle United

Tottenham Hotspur climbed up to fourth in the table after beating Newcastle United at White Hart Lane.

Gareth Bale's 10th goal of the season ensured that 10-man Tottenham leapfrogged Chelsea into the Champions League places after a hard-fought battle with Newcastle.
Bale's electric pace allowed him to beat Steven Taylor down the left before unleashing a powerful drive that beat Tim Krul after Aaron Lennon put the hosts ahead just before the hour.

Spurs ended the match with 10 men for the second time in two days after Younes Kaboul was dismissed for a foul on Cheik Tiote.
