    Is the tide turning? Let's not get too carried away. Leicester still have a five-point cushion at the top. As cushions go, that's still pretty plush. Well plumped.

    Nacer Chadli could make it five as he cuts through a half-hearted challenge and fires high and wide.

    Stoke sub Charlie Adam has a cross well held by Hugo Lloris as the Spurs fans continue to party in the away end. Not even the M6 can ruin their night...

    Keatsmeister: Whoever wins, 2015/16 PL is a triumph. Two title contenders, hardworking, strong home grown contingents, youth given a chance

    Steve Olive: Leicester WILL drop 2 points more than Spurs in their next three matches. This is going to the final day. No ifs, no buts.

    Tim Marshall: What Shay would've Given not to be in goal tonight!

    "The reason Spurs and Leicester are at the top is how hard they work off the ball. They work hard, try hard and even if you're not the greatest team it shows what you can achieve. Compare them to Aston Villa and there's a huge difference."

    Dele Alli

    Champagne stuff now. Christian Eriksen into space down the left, he picks put Dele Alli on the penalty spot and the England man cuts across the volley, intentionally, and slams it away from Shay Given.

    But that miss doesn't matter tonight. Dele Alli has a goal bonus in his back pocket. He has a win bonus on its way.

    I have been accused of underselling that miss from Dele Alli - let's try again.

    He went around Shay Given, he was to the right of the goal, which was TOTALLY VACANT.

    He could have got down on to his knees and headed it in on the floor. He hit the post...

    A hugely impressive showing from Tottenham tonight, you have to say that. This title race could yet be a contest.

    Leicester lead by five points. Leicester are without Jamie Vardy for at least one game. And maybe more...

    Jamie G: The good the bad and the ugly there from Dele Alli!

    Ali Mason: So as long as Eriksen gets his English nationality by June I think we'll do fine at the Euros

    Henry Ice: With #Spurs, external having a superior goal difference, could that make them title favourites?

    "Ronnie Rosenthal you have been let off - that was one of the greatest misses of all time by Dele Alli. i would have scored that. Pochettino is on the ground!

    Harry Kane

    The real deal! This Spurs side are something else at times. They tore Manchester United apart in six minutes last week and they are at it again now.

    Christian Eriksen wins the ball back on the edge of his own area, he whips it through to Dele Alli who then goes on one more to Erik Lamela. He's onside, and he has Harry Kane square.

    He passes it across, Kane slams in. Easy.

    He's not perfect though! Dele Alli hits the post, it's an open goal!

    But what a pass again from Harry Kane, he sends Alli in on goal, round he goes past Shay Given, a tap-in? No! He hits the post!

    "The Spurs fans are singing 'Leicester City - we're coming for you'. That was a brilliant finish by Dele Alli - calm and composed. It was a brilliant ball by Christian Eriksen. Alli is only 20 - he has to be Young Player of the Year."

    Dele Alli

    So, so cool! Christian Eriksen picks out a pass to find Dele Alli driving through the middle, no Stoke defence to speak of and Alli is one-on-one with Shay Given.

    Youth v experience. Rookie v veteran. 

    It's no contest. The young man just flicks a little chip into the net. It's lovely.

    A lack of composure and quality about the game at the moment. We are drifting. Spurs have come off the gas a touch - is that the first effects of pressure? They know how big this win would be.

    Stoke attack neatly as Bojan finds Joselu and he fires well wide.
