Tottenham managed to escape from the Liberty Stadium with a 2-1 victory over Swansea thanks to a late goal by Christian Eriksen.

Spurs started very strong and Harry Kane put his team on the lead with a fantastic header just four minutes after kick off.

The Swans were desperately looking to retaliate but Wilfried Bony was being denied time and time again and so both teams went to the dressing rooms with a score of 1-0.

It looked like Gary Monk’s motivation worked as the home team kept pushing and ultimately managed to equalise with Bony on 48 minutes.

The Swans kept pressing up front and gave a really hard time to Spurs’ defence and Hugo Lloris.

But on 89 minutes Jazz Richards gave the ball away on defence and Ben Davies passed it to Eriksen who smashed it to the back of Gerhard Tremmel’s net.
