18.04.1998 | Spurs were denied all the
points in this match at Oakwell, where Neil Redfearn gave Barnsley the
lead after Nicola Berti had hit the bar. Redfearn's powerful drive
beat Walker after he had been set up by Martin Bullock. Klinsmann
hit a shot too high and Ferdinand was denied by the Barnsley keeper, but
Barnsley had a chance to go further ahead when Tinkler had a free header
but deposited it into the side netting.
Les Ferdinand's header was blocked on the line, but Allan Nielsen's shot found Colin Calderwood, who steered the ball in. The point looked precarious when Ramon Vega was sent off in the 65th minute for fouling Ashley Ward, but the remaining ten players held out and made chances to win the match, with David Watson stopping Ginola's effort at the death when clean through.

04.02.1998 | The FA Cup Fourth Round
replay saw Spurs crash out 1-3 at Oakfield, having lost Stephen Clemence
sent off four minutes into the second period, while Jurgen Klinsmann was carried
off with a fractured jaw after 80 minutes.
A minute after being reduced to ten men, Ashley Ward headed Barnsley ahead in the 50th minute from Redfearn's cross and after Ruel Fox had an effort cleared off the line, the home side broke away for Bullock to force a save from Baardsen, but when the ball fell to Redfearn, he put the ball away to make it 2-0 eight minutes after the first goal. Barnard smashed a shot against the post, but a 72nd minute free-kick was curled home by Ginola and that brought Spurs back into the game for a short while, but a 88th minute drive from the corner of the penalty area by Darren Barnard took the Tykes through to Round Five.

Five minutes later, the Frenchman headed in from Fox's cross and Tottenham continued to be on top with two penalty appeals turned down and Nielsen, Ginola, Fox and Sinton all had good openings, but failed to add to the total. Nielsen also hit the post with a 79th minute effort. Teams : |

ease through in a high scoring match at White Hart Lane.
Debutant Shaun Close hit Spurs into the lead and Glenn Hoddle extended the aggregate advantage after 30 minutes of the match.

the only time this has happened.
So Spurs faced Barnsley at home at the end of a long season not helped by an Arctic winter. The original game had been scheduled for 15th February, but it was called off because of heavy snow and ice, so re-arranged for 24th May, the game was then put back for another two weeks. Teams : |
