Spurs' Alli gives Chelsea the Blues

Jan 05, 2017

Chelsea's hope of a record 14th consecutive victory in the Premier League were dashed after losing 2-nil to hosts Tottenham.

The Blues were bidding to become the first team to win 14 successive games within the same English top-flight season, but Dele Alli scored two headers, both set up by Christian Eriksen, to deny them the record.

Antonio Conte's side went into the match having equalled Arsenal's season record of 13 wins in a row from 2002.
