TOTTENHAM got back to winning ways as they mounted a second-half fightback against Brighton.
After going behind in a poor first 45 minutes, Jose Mourinho's side came back from a goal down thanks to strikes from Harry Kane and Dele Alli.
But both Harry Winks and Moussa Sissoko picked up needless yellow cards, meaning they will miss the trip to Norwich.
Meanwhile, Spurs have received a huge boost in their hunt to bring Gareth Bale back after it was revealed he would move to Chinese Super League due to their new wage structure.

“Others followed him, Winks and Kane I thought were terrific in the second half as well.”
IAN WRIGHT praised Christian Eriksen for his performance against Brighton.
Speaking on Match of the Day, the ex-Arsenal star said: “Eriksen came on and he started to produce the king of football that you weren't seeing in the first half.
“He got himself in positions, it's the way the speed and the swiftness in which he changed the game.
“Eriksen, that little bit of quality, they are going to miss him if he's not going to be around and they've got to do everything they can to keep him.”
