Here are Alasdair's thoughts on that first half from Spurs

Tottenham should really have this game done and dusted at half-time but instead find themselves level at 1-1.

Harry Kane should have his hat-trick already sealed against a team he just loves to score against.

He thudded a header against the crossbar early on when he should have got it on target as he was unmarked.

The striker did then grab his 18th goal in 17 matches against the Foxes when he latched on to Harry Winks' ball over the top, turned inside his man and fired home his shot off the left-hand post.

Just moments later Lucas Moura put him through again but he blazed his effort over the crossbar after running clear.

Leicester as so open at the back yet it was Tottenham's defence that gifted them a goal.

The back three struggled to deal with Lookman and Daka inside the box and then when Sergio Reguilon did make a tackle, it bounced back to Daka in front of goal. Even then Hugo Lloris should have done better as he helped the ball on its way into his net.

Despite a system that is not bursting with creativity, Spurs are creating chances and Kane looks up for it.

Tottenham need to keep up their level in the second half because if they do more chances and potentially more goals will come. If they sit back, their defence will feel the pressure.
