Arsenal Vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Younes Kaboul Goal Has Spurs On Verge Of Historic Win

Tottenham Hotspur is on the verge of their first ever win at the Emirates, their first win at Arsenal in the Premier League era, after Younes Kaboul's 86th minute goal has given Spurs a 3-2 lead in the North London Derby. Winning a Rafael van der Vaart cross between two Arsenal defenders, Kaboul flicked a ball far post from six yards out to give Tottenham their first lead of the match.

Van der Vaart ball came from the right flank, 35 yards up the pitch, coming after a foul from Laurent Koscielny earned the Arsenal center back a yellow card. Van der Vaart's inswinging ball dropped at the edge of the six, targeting Kaboul at the right of goal. Kaboul climbed over Cesc Fabregas to win the ball, holding off Sebastian Squillaci behind him. The defender's flick went toward the back post, being Lukasz Fabianski for Spurs' third goal of the half.

Tottenham has not won at Arsenal since 1993, their last visit before the start of the Premier League. Complete dominated in the first half, Spurs got goals from Gareth Bale and van der Vaart to pull even. Now, Spurs on within minutes of a historic win.

Now in the 92nd minute, the match is still 3-2, Spurs.
