LONDON -- Spain striker Roberto Soldado scored a second-half penalty on his Tottenham debut to secure a 1-0 victory over fellow London side Crystal Palace on Sunday. Tottenham was awarded the penalty in the 50th minute after Palace defender Dean Moxey handballed a cross from Aaron Lennon as he slid in to block the ball going into the penalty area. Tottenhams Gareth Bale, a target for Real Madrid, was not in the squad as he was injured and Andre Villas-Boas side seemed to miss his creativity in the first half. The majority of Tottenhams attacks came from the right side of midfield through Lennon and Kyle Walker. "We wanted to start with a win," defender Jan Vertonghen said. "Its a good result but next we want to score more goals." Tottenham enjoyed the majority of possession in the first half but could only test goalkeeper Julian Speroni with long range shots as Ian Holloways team defended strongly. Belgium midfielder Mousa Dembele went close in the 13th, his shot from 25 yards going narrowly over the crossbar. Gylfi Sigurdsson then forced a spectacular save from Speroni 10 minutes before halftime, the Palace goalkeeper acrobatically tipping the shot from just outside the area over the crossbar. Nacer Chadli, an international teammate of Dembeles, then headed over from six yards out with the last touch of the half -- missing a fantastic chance to score on his debut for the London club. Holloway reacted to Soldados second-half goal by bringing on strikers Kevin Phillips and loan-signing Marouane Chamakh to search for an equalizer and Palace looked more threatening after their introduction. But Sigurdsson should have doubled Tottenhams lead in the 68th, shooting wide from 10 yards after Spurs counterattacked against Palace, which began to press forward at every opportunity. Debutant Dwight Gayle shot over the crossbar from 30 yards and Phillips shot wide from a similar distance as the home side tried to increase the pressure against Tottenham. "They play long balls towards Chamakh and Phillips and we knew that would make it tough," Vertonghen said. Holloways side was playing its first Premier League game since 2005 and nearly equalized in the 89th when Kagisho Dikgachoi forced a good block from Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris at close range. A minute earlier, substitute Jermain Defoe wasted a chance to secure the win for Tottenham, shooting wide from inside the penalty area. Villas-Boas also gave a debut to summer arrivals Etienne Capoue, who appeared as a substitute, and Brazil midfielder Paulinho, who was particularly impressive when in possession of the ball. "Three new signings started today and they all did extremely well," Villas-Boas said. "They bonded well and responded to each others play." Tottenhams next league game is next Sunday against Swansea at White Hart Lane and Crystal Palace takes on Stoke away on Saturday.

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

Heavyweight contender Joseph Parker will risk his status as the mandatory challenger for world titleholder Anthony Joshua by squaring off with Alexander Dimitrenko on Oct. 1 at the Vodafone Events Centre in Manukau, New Zealand, promoter Duco Events announced at a news conference Monday.The announcement of Parkers bout, which is in his hometown, comes just four days after he also risked his mandatory status in a fourth-round knockout victory against Solomon Haumono in Christchurch, New Zealand.The 6-foot-4, 234-pound Parker (20-0, 17 KOs), 24, will be the smaller man against the 6-7, 254-pound Dimitrenko (38-2, 24 KOs).It doesnt faze me fighting big men, Parker said. I know if I put in the training, I know I can beat anyone in the world. ... I think its important to go to the body and break him down.Trainer Kevin Barry wants Parker to fight taller opponents in preparation for the eventual fight with Joshua, who is 6-6.We need to put Joe up against some big men, Barry said. There are big guys at the top of the heavyweight division. When you look at [world champion] Tyson Fury, when you look at [former champion Wladimir] Klitschko, when you look at Joshua, these guys are all tall. These are the guys we are targeting. These are the guys who hold the titles. These are the guys that dictate all of the big purses in world heavyweight boxing. So we need to go after them.Dimitrenko, 34, of Russia, is the former European heavyweight champion and has won six fights in a row since suffering an 11th-round knockouut loss to contender Kubrat Pulev in a European title fight in May 2012.ddddddddddddDimitrenko is a guy who former world champion Shannon Briggs went out of his way to avoid earlier this year because of the risk, Duco Events promoter Dean Lonergan said. Even casual boxing fans know that all Eastern Europeans in the heavyweight division know how to fight.Dimitrenko pulled out of a fight against interim world titleholder Luis Ortiz scheduled for March 5 on HBO in Washington, D.C., because he was unhappy with the purse.With Joshua (17-0, 17 KOs), 26, of England, free to make an optional defense until Nov. 8 and the mandatory fight not due until Jan. 9, 2017, Parker is looking to stay sharp against Dimitrenko with the title fight looming.Barry said it is possible that if Parker beats Dimitrenko he will fight yet again before the end of the year.Well focus on this fight, and after this fight theres every indication that, everything going well, that we will fight another tall guy later in the year, Barry said.Parker said the eventual world title fight is on his mind but that he will be prepared for Dimitrenko.Even though theres something in the back of my head in Joshua, you still have to stay focused on whats in front of you, Parker said. If you lose focus, thats the fight you dont get to. I want to stay focused even though were thinking about Joshua. This is another challenge. ' ' '
