A first home defeat since late October leaves second-placed Tottenham six points adrift of Liverpool, who can widen that gap when they host Arsenal later on Saturday. Manchester City could move second if they win at Southampton on Sunday. "WE DECIDED THE GAME WAS OVER"Spurs coach Mauricio Pochettino criticised his side for easing off in the second half and assuming they had the victory wrapped up. "In the second half we decided that the game was over and when you start to think that you run into problems," he told a news conference. "It is good for the dressing room but to play like this at Wembley, the home of football, is the big thing."
