Spurs midfielder Jamie Redknapp has publicly apologised to Everton's Tim Cahill after his horror tackle on the Australian international at Goodison Park.
Cahill was forced out of the Premiership match after an hour on Saturday and will probably miss his country's forthcoming World Cup qualifier against the Solomon Islands.
To add to Everton's frustrations, they also went down to a 1-0 defeat. "It was just not meant," said Redknapp. "There was no intention there whatsoever and, for me personally, it's taken the gloss off
what was a great result for Tottenham."
"I tried to let the ball run and I can imagine it looks bad. As I tried to let it run my left foot has gone out and I don't even try to tackle with my left foot, I'm right footed. It was one of those things and I hope there is no serious damage. It's just not my game. I just hope he's okay. There was absolutely no maliciousness in the tackle, that's all I can say. I can put my hand on my heart and say that."
