Both sides were quick out of the starting blocks, with Toby Alderweireld firing a header over the Swans bar after just seven minutes played, while at the other end Hugo Lloris had to be quick off his line to claim the ball ahead of the onrushing Bafetimbi Gomis.

Garry Monk's side edged themselves into the lead just after the quarter-hour mark in what was their first concrete attack, Gomis and Gylfi Sigurdsson combining to find Jefferson Montero, whose pinpoint cross was glanced in by Andre Ayew.

Spurs were soon level, however, as a tackle by Federico Fernandez just before the half-hour mark gave the visitors a free kick which Christian Eriksen curled over the wall and past Lukasz Fabianski.

Just four minutes later the hosts were back in front, with Harry Kane's lukewarm second season in the first team taking another unwelcome twist when he sliced a Jonjo Shelvey corner into his own net.

The 22-year-old nearly redeemed himself almost instantly when he powered through Swansea's final third and let rip with a strike down the middle, but Fabianski made a low reflex save to keep the ball out.

Eriksen then found himself with a sterling chance to add a third for his side in the 35th minute through another free kick 25 yards out, but lightning could not strike twice as the Swansea goalkeeper dived low to his left to keep the ball out.

Following the restart, Kane was once again in the thick of the action as he latched on to a cross just a few yards from the Swansea goal, but Fabianski was again alert to dive in and push the ball away, while at the other end Montero weighed in with a cross that Gomis nodded over.

Just after the hour Spurs were gifted another free kick around 35 yards out, and once again Eriksen stepped up, sized up his angle, and curled the ball over the wall and into the far top corner of the net.

The visitors were invigorated following their second equaliser and began piling forward in a bid to get themselves in front for the first time in the game, with Andros Townsend firing a dipping shot from the edge of the box that Fabianski blocked with his legs.

Swansea came within a whisker of snatching the win in the second minute of injury time when a free kick was swung into the Spurs box and met by the head of Fernandez, which was kept out by a diving Lloris save as the final whistle blew on honours even.

The result sees the Swans edge up to 11th in the Premier League table, while Mauricio Pochettino's side climb to eighth place.
