The north Londoners appeared to have victory snatched away from them by substitute Kelechi Iheanacho, until the Danish playmaker stroked the ball past Joe Hart late on.
Tottenham took a huge step towards the Premier League title with a dramatic 2-1 victory away to Manchester City, racking up their seventh consecutive win in all competitions.
Spurs took the lead in controversial fashion, with Raheem Sterling harshly penalised for handball, before Harry Kane stepped up and dispatched the resulting spot-kick down the middle of the goal with real venom.
The decision sparked the hosts into life as they took control of the match and began flooding forward, with their endeavour rewarded when substitute Kelechi Iheanacho rifled Gael Clichy’s pull-back into the back of the net.
City appeared to be in the ascendency until another sub, Erik Lamela, dribbled through the hosts’ midfield and threaded a perfect through-ball into the path of Christian Eriksen, who slotted home for the win.
