#3 Leicester open their away points tally
Leicester City have played Hull City, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea away in the Premier League and returned home empty handed. They lost 2-1 to Hull City and by 3-goal margins to the rest of the sides mentioned above.
As a consequence, their credentials as champions were questioned and snide remarks were passed by rival fans labelling them as ‘just a one-season wonder’. However, against Spurs, the Foxes were in no mood to take a beating and put up a well-drilled performance to take home a crucial away point.
They rose to the battle against the toughest defence in the league so far in 2016/17. After a challenge by Robert Huth in the box led to a soft penalty which Vincent Janssen shot home, the visitors equalised soon after the break through a well-taken strike by summer arrival Ahmed Musa. It was a long time coming, but the champions have set the ball rolling during visits.
