So much for taking it easy before the World Cup. A frantic and breathless encounter between Tottenham and Leeds, which swung wildly and thrillingly in both directions, ends with what is now a familiar story, as Antonio Conte’s emotionally and physically dained side dragged themselves to the finish line. This was a classic, with all the hallmarks of Tottenham’s recent run. For boxes ticked see: a slow start, a second-half comeback, and late winner scored by Rodrigo Bentancur.

The Uruguayan’s two goals in the space of two minutes did more than just turn the match around and earn Tottenham a 4-3 win, it changes the mood around Spurs heading into the World Cup. Tottenham seemed to be heading for their fourth defeat in five Premier League games and may have finished the weekend outside of the top four. Instead, when they return on Boxing Day, they will do so three points behind Manchester City and with this crazy ride still somewhat ticking on track.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:
