Chelsea 1-3 Tottenham Hotspur: Player Ratings

=Tottenham Hotspur finally put an end to their poor run of results at Stamford Bridge with a 3-1 win over London rivals Chelsea on Sunday. Mauricio Pochettino's men showed great temperament to complete the comeback in the second half after Alvaro Morata had earlier put the hosts ahead in the 30th minute with a towering header.

Christian Eriksen's stunning strike right at the stroke of half-time ensured that the teams headed into the break all square. Tottenham gathered the momentum in the second half and put the game to bed when Dele Alli scored twice in the space of 4 minutes.

The result now means that Chelsea are currently eight points away from the final Champions League qualification spot, occupied by Spurs with just 7 more games to play. Without further delay, let's take a closer look at how the players from both sides fared during the game:

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham finally break their Stamford Bridge hoodoo

Hugo Lloris - 6/10

The Frenchman was forced into making a couple of good saves in the first half before he made an erratic decision to try and claim Moses' cross and ended up missing it, providing the perfect opportunity for Morata to pounce on. Lloris was largely untroubled in the second half.

Kieran Trippier - 7/10

Trippier worked effectively down the right flank for Spurs on the night and showcased his attacking potential yet again with some excellent delivery into the area. The defender was equally good at the back, managing to keep Eden Hazard quiet for the majority of the game.

Davinson Sanchez - 8/10

The Colombian was a real rock at the back for the visitors and excelled due to his awareness and impeccable reading of the game. Sanchez was comfortable on the ball and if recent form is anything to go by, Alderweireld might have a hard time taking his spot back.

Jan Vertonghen - 8/10

Vertonghen looked imperious at the back for Spurs alongside Sanchez and hardly put a foot wrong during the game. The Belgian made a number of crucial last-gasp tackles to keep Spurs in the tie and was one certainly one of their best players on the night.

Ben Davies - 7/10

Chelsea's opening goal came down his side after he was caught napping by a diagonal ball from Rudiger to Moses in the first half. However, Davies showed plenty of grit in response and the hosts rarely enjoyed anything down that side since then.

Eric Dier - 8/10

Dier played his role to perfection in the middle of the park and was not reluctant to drop down and help his defenders whenever required. The Englishman's sublime pass to Alli for Spurs' second goal on the night proved that he is indeed an invaluable asset for both club and country.

Mousa Dembele - 7/10

The Belgian was not at his usual best on the night and produced a few sloppy passes in the first half. Despite the slow start, Dembele showed physicality in midfield that helped Spurs dominate the proceedings in the middle.

Erik Lamela - 7/10

Lamela might have been a little lucky to have escaped a sending off after replays suggested that he could have been given the marching orders for a couple of silly challenges. However, he was a real nuisance for Chelsea and he never stopped running until he was replaced by Sissoko in the dying stages.

Dele Alli - 9/10

Alli produced a match-winning performance on the night

Alli responded to his critics in style after single-handedly helping Spurs to their first ever win at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League era. The Englishman's involvement was clearly evident in all of Spurs' three goals on the night as he produced yet another match-winning performance.

Christian Eriksen - 8/10

The Dane acted as the creator in chief for Spurs and looked the likeliest to score after he had troubled Caballero with a shot from distance just before that thunderous 87mph strike that dipped just in time to find the back of the net, to provide Spurs with the equaliser. Eriksen was also involved in initiating Spurs' third goal after he produced a first-time pass to release Son.

Son Heung-Min - 7/10

Kane's absence meant that Son was the obvious choice to start up front for Spurs and the South Korean worked tirelessly both centrally and by drifting wide whenever required. Son played a crucial role in Alli's second goal with a menacing run.

Substitutes

Harry Kane - 6/10

The striker returned to action in the final 15 minutes of the game when he replaced Son in the 74th minute. Kane showed great strength to hold the ball, helping his teammates get more involved in the game.

Victor Wanyama - N/A

Wanyama replaced Dier in the 81st minute and did well to see off the game.

Moussa Sissoko - N/A

Came on for Lamela in the 88th minute.

Chelsea

Chelsea failed to take full advantage of the first half lead

Willy Caballero - 5/10

Caballero had a few awkward moments throughout the game and it seemed like he hardly made an effort to try and stop Eriksen's effort. However, the Argentine could do very little about the way in which he conceded the two second-half goals and also produced a stunning save to deny Son.

Victor Moses - 4/10

The Nigerian started the game brightly and provided a lot of width on the right side before providing the perfect cross for Morata to break the deadlock in the 30th minute. Despite the bright start, Moses failed to keep it up and he made a shocking mistake to give the ball away for Eriksen to score.

Cesar Azpilicueta - 5/10

Azpilicueta tried his best to try and inspire his side at the heart of the defence but he was let down by the collective effort of the team, who struggled as a whole on the night. The Spaniard was still confident of playing the ball out from the back though.

Andreas Christensen - 4/10

The youngster had enjoyed a sensational start to his senior career at Chelsea and managed to keep Son quiet for a major part of the game. However, he could only watch on as Spurs clawed their way back into the game with a quick-fire double in the second half.

Antonio Rudiger - 5/10

Rudiger played a crucial role in the build-up to Chelsea's goal on the night after he successfully sprayed a diagonal ball to Moses on the other flank. But the Germany international was caught out of position on a few instances and did not enjoy most of his involvement.

Marcos Alonso - 4/10

The full-back managed to get into some good areas inside the opposition half but he had nothing to show for it, thanks to a number of fluffed chances and a disallowed goal for offside.

N'Golo Kante - 6/10

Kante was his usual self of covering the ground and providing cover to his teammates but he failed to make any significant impact as Spurs slowly got into their stride. The Frenchman was hardly helped out by his peers on the pitch and could not do enough in the end.

Cesc Fabregas - 4/10

Fabregas disappointed yet again for Chelsea

The poor run of form continues for Fabregas, who failed to muster anything substantial yet again for Chelsea. The Spaniard struggled throughout the game and could not provide the spark of creativity that he is famous for.

Willian - 4/10

Willian has been one of Chelsea's best players in recent weeks but the Brazilian failed to make an impact against Spurs on the night. The winger failed to inspire his side to a win and faded off eventually in the second half.

Eden Hazard - 5/10

The Belgian was forced to come deep and recover the ball to try and create something for the hosts but was let down by the lack of link-up play. Hazard showed flashes of brilliance and was often disrupted by clattering tackles that eventually slowed him down.

Alvaro Morata - 5/10

Morata started the game positively and leapt highest to break the deadlock in the 30th minute with a well-executed header. However, his performance faded off in the second half and he struggled to even hold the ball up.

Substitutes

Olivier Giroud - 5/10

Giroud became Chelsea's first substitution on the night when he replaced Moses in the 81st minute and he managed to do very little to try and change their fortunes.

Emerson Palmieri - N/A

Palmieri replaced Alonso in the 83rd minute and was provided with too little time to make an impact.

Callum Hudson-Odoi - N/A

Came on in the 88th minute for Alvaro Morata.
