Alli was unstoppable on the night

The pairing of Moussa Dembele and Victor Wanyama is looking stronger with each passing game and they showed that in their side's most important game of the season till date. The pair played with grit and did not give Chelsea’s attackers space or time on the ball. They tracked back well and also kept the ball moving, passing it onto their attackers.

With the home side being defensively calm and composed at the back and also dominating in the centre of the park, it gave a license to Spurs' trio of Kane, Alli and Eriksen to attack freely and ultimately the 20-year-old did the trick for the Lilywhites. Alli scored identical headers to take his tally to six goals in a week for the Londoners and showed his immense talent again to be the difference in big games.
