From the official Spurs Site:-
Bobby Zamora kicked-off his Spurs career in style with a debut double in
Sunday's friendly win at Oxford United.
Our #1.5m capture from Brighton showed exactly the sort of form that
attracted the attention of Glenn Hoddle with goals after 21 and 44 minutes.
Both were poacher's efforts - the first a lethal finish from 12 yards after
Gus Poyet's run into the box, the second a dart between goalkeeper and
defender to make John Jackson's cross his own before tapping home.
Robbie Keane smashed home his first goal on his first appearance of the
season in the second half to complete a good afternoon's work at the Kassam
Stadium.
In-between goals, Zamora's play was just as impressive in the first half as
he linked up particularly well with Poyet, skipper for the day and a driving
force from midfield.
Poyet was everywhere and could have scored a hat-trick of his own in the
half - he shot tamely after a one-two with Zamora, his own player blocked a
goalbound header and a meaty volley, again from Zamora's assist, whistled
inches over.
The second half heralded the arrival of Keane and Steve Carr for Zamora and
Hughes for the first time in pre-season.
It was a quieter affair livened when Keane cracked home his goal from 22
yards, a bolt out of the blue that left Cox clutching at thin air.
Keane was inches away from a tap in when Poyet's volley flashed across goal,
Cox did well to block Mark Yeates' effort and at the other end, Rob Burch
was on his toes to pluck out James Hunt's drive.
