They had now also taken 16 points from their last 16 games in the Premier League. Christian Eriksen became the fifth player to score 50 or more goals for Spurs in the Premier League. He had failed to score in 11 previous appearances against Arsenal in all competitions. With his tenth goal, Harry Kane equalled the record for scoring the most goals in North London derbies in all competitions (also Bobby Smith and Emmanuel Adebayor).
