Leicester City looked set to grab the three points from Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur. But Steven Bergwijn had other plans, the Dutch winger came off the bench to score two late goals to hand Tottenham the win.
Spurs dominated the early proceedings and the opener looked more and more likely as the first half passed by. But Patson Daka scored in the 24th minute, totally against the run of play and handed Leicester the lead.
However, Tottenham were not behind for very long as Harry Kane levelled the proceedings in the 38th minute from a Harry Winks pass over the top. Kane should have scored his second of the game but failed to get his effort anywhere near the goal.
Conte replaced Emerson Royal with Matt Doherty at the half-time interval. Once again Spurs looked the likelier side to score again and kept piling on the pressure. But Leicester City took the lead again through Maddison in the 76th minute. The match looked to be done but Steven Bergwijn stuck a late equalizer and then grabbed the winner just two minutes later.
