Tottenham defender Eric Dier conceded it was a sweet feeling to halt Chelsea's stunning winning run given the recent feisty affairs between the two sides.
Headers either side of half-time from in-form England star Dele Alli gave Spurs a deserved 2-0 victory over the Premier League leaders, who were forced to settle for a record-equalling streak of 13 straight top-flight victories in the same season.
One of the major steps in that run for Antonio Conte's men was a come-from-behind win over Spurs at Stamford Bridge in November - their London rivals' first league loss of the campaign - while a late collapse and a 2-2 draw at Chelsea ended the title ambitions of Mauricio Pochettino and his players last time around.
