Tottenham vs Swansea: Match report and highlights


Ryan Mason scores for Tottenham


Swansea striker Bafetimbi Gomis needed several minutes of treatment on the pitch after collapsing during his side's defeat at Tottenham

Gomis was carried off, having collapsed after Nacer Chadli put Spurs 1-0 up, but Swansea later said he was "fine".

Swansea equalised through Ki Sung-yeung soon after play restarted.

Ryan Mason's first league goal restored Spurs' lead in the second half and Andros Townsend made it 3-1 before Gylfi Sigurdsson set up a tense finish.

Tottenham paid tribute to Double-winning captain Dave Mackay, who died on Tuesday at the age of 80, with a minute's applause before kick-off.

And Spurs did justice to one of their greatest players with an impressive performance which got their challenge for a top-four place back on track with a first Premier League victory since beating Arsenal on 7 February.

It helped them get over the disappointment of losing Sunday's League Cup final to Chelsea and going out of the Europa League to Fiorentina at the last-16 stage last week.

The result prevented Swansea recording a third successive win and continued their terrible record at White Hart Lane where they have never won a league game in 16 attempts.
