Antonio Conte becomes the first manager in Tottenham Hotspur's history to avoid defeat in his first seven league games in charge of the club.

Antonio Conte has etched his name into the Tottenham Hotspur history books following Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Southampton in the Premier League.

The Lilywhites quickly found themselves 1-0 down at St Mary's courtesy of a stunning effort from James Ward-Prowse before Harry Kane levelled from the spot.

Despite playing the entire second half with a man advantage following Mohammed Salisu's sending off, Spurs - who had two goals disallowed - had to settle for a point on the South Coast.

However, Conte has now earned a slice of Tottenham history, with the Italian becoming the first manager in the club's history to navigate his first seven league games in charge unbeaten.

The ex-Chelsea and Inter Milan coach has overseen four wins and three draws since taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo and next faces a trip to Watford on New Year's Day.

Following the draw with Southampton, the Lilywhites now sit five points adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal with two games in hand.
