Sizzling Spurs brush aside sorry Gunners
Apr 30, 2017 - 5:43 PM Second-half goals from Dele Alli and Harry Kane sealed a comfortable 2-0 win for Spurs over Arsenal to pile more misery on their bitter north London rivals.The win keeps Spurs in touching distance with leaders Chelsea, with four points separating the sides and also ensured they'll finish above Arsenal for the first time in 22 years.
Alli put Spurs ahead in the 56th minute when he followed up after Christian Eriksen's shot was saved. Two minutes later Kane went down in the penalty area under Gabriel's challenge and got up to convert the penalty.
Tottenham's victory in Arsene Wenger's 50th North London derby as Arsenal manager ensured Spurs will finish above their neighbours for the first time in 22 years.
It was their ninth successive league win and the margin would have been greater but for some fine saves by Petr Cech.
