Dele Alli scored a header against Chelsea in a 2-0 win for Spurs

A brace from Delle Alli ended Chelsea’s 13-match winning streak and dashed their hopes of making Premier League history with 14 successive wins.

Needing a win to open up an 8-point lead at the top, Chelsea started brightly and Eden Hazard had a golden opportunity to score the opener when he had just Hugo Lloris to beat but the Belgian hit wide of the far post. Mauricio Pochettino’s men soon found their rhythm and took a deserving lead just before the half-time when Alli headed home from a Christian Eriksen cross. Chelsea replied immediately after the break as Diego Costa and Hazard came close to scoring. However, Alli put the game out of Chelsea’s reach by once again nodding home from an Eriksen cross.

The win has now reduced Chelsea’s lead to five points while the home team moved back in the top four with the convincing win.
