ROVERS can count themselves a little lucky to be level at the break.

Spurs have had much the better of things at Ewood Park this afternoon and went ahead when Dimitar Berbatov bundled the ball home after Jermaine Jenas slid the ball across the box on seven minutes.

Berbatov and Aaron Lennon both went close for the visitors before Rovers drew level just after the half-hour mark.

David Bentley created the chance when he skinned Pascal Chimbonda down the right and his ball into the box found Morten Gamst Pedersen and he did the rest from 10 yards.

The goal put a fresh wind into Rovers' sails and they came close through Roque Santa Cruz and a Bentley free-kick, which were both saved by Radek Cerny.

But, at the break, it's all square.
