WATCH: Tottenham 5-4 Leicester
Monday 14 May 2018 00:22, UK
An end-of-season classic saw Tottenham say farewell to their temporary Wembley home by coming back from 3-1 down to beat Leicester City 5-4 and secure third place in the Premier League.
Appropriately, it was Harry Kane who delivered the final goal of Tottenham's campaign, curling in his 30th of the league season to complete a dizzying afternoon of attacking football.
Kane, who ended the season two goals behind Liverpool's Mohamed Salah as he just failed to claim a third successive Premier League Golden Boot, was also on target in the first half in which Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez put Leicester 2-1 ahead.
Kelechi Iheanacho's stunning shot put Leicester two clear just after halftime but it provoked a furious Spurs response in which Erik Lamela struck twice either side of an own goal by Christian Fuchs, who deflected Lamela's shot in off his knee.
Vardy, who will almost certainly be on the plane with Kane as part of England's World Cup squad in Russia this summer, slammed in an equaliser for Leicester after a deft pass by Mahrez.
A draw would have dropped Tottenham below Liverpool into fourth spot but Kane enjoyed the last laugh in the battle of the England strikers when he cut in from the left to curl a trademark effort past Leicester keeper Eldin Jakupovic.
