Come the end of the season, Tottenham fans might look back to this day as the day they began truly believing the title is a genuine possibility.
Inexplicably 1-0 down until midway through the second half, Spurs continued to pepper the Swansea goal, as they had been since the early stages, and were eventually rewarded when Nacer Chadli turned in a driven Kyle Walker cross.
White Hart Lane roared the hosts onto a potentially monumental three points. Danny Rose smashed home the winner to put Tottenham within two points of leaders Leicester.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the result and performance.
Some great scenes on the pitch at the final whistle! I think Sonny enjoyed that one! #COYShttps://t.co/3epSIo8WoS

#thfc FT: 2-1 to Spurs! In previous yrs they'd have lost and we'd be talking about the effect of the Europa League. Things are different now

Unreal full-back play today. Rose MOTM – so fierce, persistent & positive – but Walker terrific too. So much energy. #COYS!

That was a champions' performance. Goal didn't hurt us. We fought back ever so strong. About 36 attempts on goal today. Fantastic subs too.
— BleedSpurs (@BleedSpurs) February 28, 2016
Walker with the assist for the first and Rose with the goal for the second. Fullbacks SO important. #COYS

Eriksen was the first to absolutely everything, just as he has been all year. Become incredibly multi-faceted without sacrificing dynamism.
— Raj Bains (@BainsXIII) February 28, 2016
That was beautiful. Bar the opening 15 mins absolutely destroyed them. Two quick late 2nd half goals. Erisken different level. #thfc #COYS
