Tottenham manager Redknapp made a triumphant return to his former club but saw Jermain Defoe sent off for a stamp in the Barclays Premier League victory against Portsmouth.

After leaving Pompey nearly a year ago, Redknapp eventually took Defoe, Peter Crouch and Niko Kranjcar with him - and almost inevitably Defoe got on the scoresheet after Ledley King had opened the scoring.

The England striker getting sent off, however, was not in the script and set up a thrilling finale after Kevin-Prince Boateng had pulled a goal back - with Michael Brown following Defoe in injury time for a second booking.
