Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg scored the other Spurs goal either side of the Chelsea strikes.

Tottenham Hotspur goalscorer Harry Kane said .”I’m happy with the way we fought back, especially in the second half and it’s a really nice feeling to get that goal at the end. I kind of flicked it and I wasn’t sure where it went, I saw the net rustling and the away fans cheering”

Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel said,”It was emotional at the end, me and Antonio had different opinions. It’s football, it’s the game, it’s the Premier League. It’s between two competitors. We were absolutely brilliant in the game, only one team deserved to win and I’m sorry we didn’t get what we deserve.”
