After the Day of Draws, it was possible to draw some conclusions from a seemingly inconclusive game at the Lane. This stalemate proved that Tottenham Hotspur's Entertainers can live with the elite while also highlighting the remarkable resilience contained within Manchester United's Unbeatables.
If this felt like a particularly good point for Sir Alex Ferguson's team, making light of Rafael's dismissal and restoring them to the summit, it allowed Harry Redknapp's men to make some points about their own credentials.
They may be "outsiders", according to Redknapp, in this absorbing five-horse race for the title but yesterday showed that their season's aim should not simply be about retaining membership of their Champions League ticket.
