Following the high of securing a 1-0 win over Manchester City and Harry Kane writing his name into the club's history books, Tottenham crashed back down to earth with an almighty bang on Saturday. Heading to Leicester looking it to make it four successive wins in all competitions, Antonio Conte's men instead left the King Power Stadium on the back of a 4-1 hammering.
The scoreline could have been so much worse for the visitors as the Foxes had multiple chances to add to their four goals and they also saw a Harvey Barnes goal disallowed midway through the second half. Tottenham, on the other hand, did nothing of note to trouble Danny Ward in the Leicester goal and the hosts never appeared to be in any real danger of throwing away the points after doing so at the death in the same fixture 13 months ago.
Given Tottenham's Champions League aspirations, with the team in a promising position to attack what is left of this campaign, the game at Leicester represented a real opportunity for them to carry on their recent momentum and register another victory before they take on AC Milan at the San Siro on Tuesday evening.
