Steven Bergwijn scored twice in stoppage time for Tottenham to stage one of the craziest comebacks in Premier League history to beat Leicester 3-2.
Leicester looked set for three points with the clock at 95 minutes at 2-1 up but two goals in 80 seconds from the substitute Bergwijn turned the game completely around and left the Foxes in complete shock.
“To get two goals like that in stoppage time – it’s a game I’ll never forget for the rest of my career,” Harry Kane told BT Sport.
The victory moves Tottenham above Arsenal into fifth and they are just one point off West Ham in fourth and have three games in hand on the Hammers.
Leicester took the lead against the run of play on 24 minutes when Patson Daka squeezed home a finish beyond Hugo Lloris.
Leicester looked to be strolling to victory but Bergwijn, who has been the subject of transfer interest from Ajax and Sevilla, hammered home from close range on 90+5 minutes after some tenacious play from fellow substitute Matt Doherty.
Leicester then completely capitulated when Youri Tielemans squandered possession from kick-off to Kane, who threatened a fine ball in behind the hapless pair of Jannik Vestergaard and Caglar Soyuncu and Bergwijn somehow kept his cool to finish off the inside of the post. Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers called his team “naive” for throwing the three points away in such an embarrassing fashion.
A remarkable finish to a remarkable game.
