Christian Eriksen was the Tottenham hero as the Dane's late strike gave Spurs a win at Hull.

The Tigers had taken the lead through Jake Livermore in the first half.

But Harry Kane tapped in a second half equaliser for Spurs, before Eriksen's last minute winner.

Spurs are 10th on the table thanks to the win.

Earlier, Liverpool lost the 1.30 kick-off to Crystal Palace.

Rickie Lambert scored for the Reds in the 3 - 1 defeat. His goal came only two minutes in.

It was Dwight Gayle with the equaliser 15 minutes later. Joe Ledley and Mile Jedinak scored in quick succession late in the game to move Palace out of the relegation zone.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers took responsibility for the poor run of form, which has left them on the end of three defeats in a row.

"I pick the team, and put the players out there to perform. It's my job, and it's my responsibility. At the moment, I'm not doing it well enough," he said after today's game.
