<p>Jose Mourinho’s men were seen as the main challengers to defending champions Liverpool after a promising start to the season but they were second best in a limp display in north London.</p>
<p>Vardy’s spot-kick on the stroke of half-time and a Toby Alderweireld own goal just before the hour saw Brendan Rodgers get one over his former mentor and saw his side move four points off the lead.</p>

<p>Although Spurs made it much easier for them than it should be, the victory at a team around them in the table sends a strong message.</p>
<p>For Tottenham, this defeat follows on from the one at Anfield in midweek and the manner of it validates Mourinho’s opinion that they were never title contenders.</p>

<p>In Sunday’s early kick-off, rock-bottom Sheffield United were cruelly denied a first league win of the season after substitute Danny Welbeck salvaged a 1-1 draw for fellow strugglers Brighton.</p>
<p>Albion forward Welbeck volleyed home three minutes from time as the beleaguered Blades had to settle for only a second point of a miserable campaign at the end of their 14th fixture.</p>

<p>Jayden Bogle’s deflected second-half strike on his top-flight debut had put the visitors on course for an unlikely victory after John Lundstram’s dismissal left them with 10 men for 50 minutes.</p>
<p>Chris Wilder’s battling side could even have ended a tense contest empty handed as Alireza Jahanbakhsh headed against the crossbar deep into added time.</p>
<p>United sit eight points from safety after ending an eight-game losing streak, while Brighton move two points above the relegation zone as their alarming home form continued.</p>
