Tottenham scored a fine 2-0 victory over Portsmouth in the Premiership's early kick off on Saturday. Tottenham won thanks to goals from Jamie O'Hara and Darren Bent - both of whom came off the bench to score.
But for all Spurs' tidy possession in the first half, they could not manage to edge ahead - although they did come very close.
Dawson's 30th-minute volley was hit such ferocity that if rebounded off the bar back to the edge of the area.
Pompey keeper David James would have been pleased by his side's defensive efforts. The England keeper would also have been relieved that, early on, he managed to clear the ball to stop Keane stealing in after he had cheekily crept up from behind the goal-line.
On 70 minutes, Bent and Jamie O'Hara replaced Dawson and a below-par Aaron Lennon.
The substitutions proved superb as Bent then took the game by the scruff of the neck and settled matters in the space of two minutes.
Two minutes later, Bent's work gifted Jamie O'Hara a goal and another great result for Tottenham.
