Tottenham Hotspur came from behind to claim a 3-1 victory over north London rivals Arsenal, a result which keeps them out of the Premier League 2 Division 1 relegation zone.

Danny Ballard's 18th-minute header put the Gunners ahead at Boreham Wood FC but Spurs equalised eight minutes later through Timothy Eyoma, whose brother AJ came on for Arsenal in the second half.

And the visitors sealed victory with two fine goals either side of half-time from Oliver Skipp and Keanan Bennetts (pictured).

Spurs, now five matches unbeaten, are one points clear of the bottom two while third-placed Arsenal are four points behind leaders Leicester City with a match in hand.
