Tottenham No1 Gomes loves playing at Fulham

Tottenham goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes admits he loves playing at Fulham's Craven Cottage.

The Brazilian produced a super display to earn Spurs an FA Cup quarter-final replay in the goalless draw at Fulham on Saturday - his side's second successive 0-0 at the Cottagers' home.

Gomes said: "Yes, it's turning into a special place for me!

"It's always the best feeling when there is an important moment and I can help the team win or draw the game, when we get points or in this case, to keep going in the FA Cup."

Gomes' point-blank save from Zoltan Gera's bullet header was the highlight of the Brazilian's afternoon.

On the save, Gomes added: "It was a difficult save because it's so close and the ball travelled so quickly from one side to the other side.

"You have control your movement. I think this was a good save. Fulham is not an easy place to play. They are confident now, they beat Shakhtar, they play Juventus next week and they do well here.

"It's a tough place to play. We have a chance now at home to go to Wembley."
