Tottenham Hotspur have extended their unbeaten league start to 10 games courtesy of a 1-1 draw with Leicester City at White Hart Lane this afternoon.
Vincent Janssen gave the home side the lead with a penalty towards the end of the first half, but Ahmed Musa's goal soon after the restart was enough to hand the champions their first away point of the season.
Spurs had already registered their best ever start to a Premier League season when they got the game underway, but things got off to a slow start as the hosts struggled to break the champions down.
The first sight of goal eventually arrived after 13 minutes when Dele Alli let fly with a well-struck piledriver that was beaten away by Kasper Schmeichel, before the Dane also collected a long-range strike from Danny Rose moments later.
It was only long-range efforts for the home side, though, and Christian Eriksen was the next to have a go from distance when his 30-yard free kick bounced a yard past the post.
Victor Wanyama then dragged a first-time half-volley wide of the target from the edge of the area before Leicester finally created their first opening of the contest, with Shinji Okazaki getting in front of his man and flicking a Riyad Mahrez cross over the bar.
Spurs responded with their best chance of the match up to that point moments later, but Janssen could not get enough on his effort at the front post having shrugged off Danny Simpson.
Leicester's threat began to grow as the half wore on, and it was almost an unlikely name who broke the deadlock as Christian Fuchs, fresh from scoring his first goal for the club last weekend, unleashed a first-time 25-yard volley that flew narrowly over.
Once again Tottenham hit back with a good opening of their own, though, and this time it was only the woodwork that denied them as Alli smashed Kyle Walker's cutback against the crossbar.
The breakthrough finally did arrive with just one minute left until the interval, though, when Robert Huth, whose goal was the difference between the two sides in the corresponding fixture last season, was adjudged to have dragged Janssen to the ground inside the penalty area.
Janssen stepped up to take the spot kick himself and made no mistake, smashing the ball down the middle for his first Premier League goal and his third since joining Spurs - all of which have come from the spot.
The hosts almost caught Leicester sleeping immediately after the opener too when Son Heung-min snuck in at the near post, but he could only find the side-netting with his effort and the gap remained at one going into the break.
It didn't take long for the champions to wipe off that deficit after the restart, though, as Jamie Vardy - back in the starting XI having been named on the Ballon d'Or shortlist earlier this week - collected a loose ball from Wanyama's wayward header before rolling a pass across the face of goal that Musa bravely poked home at the back post.
It was the first league goal that Tottenham had conceded from open play all season and just the second time they had let one in at White Hart Lane, making it 10 Premier League meetings with Leicester since they last kept a clean sheet.
Mauricio Pochettino's side soon regained control of possession again, but Schmeichel kept them at bay by adjusting to keep out Eriksen's deflected effort before turning the ball onto the roof of his own net as it looked like dropping kindly for Son.
Janssen then flashed two efforts inches wide as he looked for his first goal from open play in a Tottenham shirt, but Leicester continued to hold out as Claudio Ranieri looked to maintain his unbeaten record against Spurs in the Premier League.
Once again the visitors had the woodwork to thank late on, though, with Jan Vertonghen the man to be denied this time when his header came back off the crossbar with Schmeichel well beaten.
Vertonghen came close again with a 30-yard strike that whistled narrowly wide in stoppage time, before Leicester almost stole the victory in the final minute through Leonardo Ulloa's header, which drifted just past the far post with Hugo Lloris worried.
Ultimately, though, the spoils were shared as Tottenham's unbeaten start to the season continued, although it is now three consecutive league draws and five games without a win in all competitions for Pochettino's side.
The point lifts them back into the top four, but they lose ground on Manchester City and Arsenal, while Liverpool and Chelsea are still to play this weekend.
Leicester, meanwhile, avoid becoming only the second defending top-flight champions to lose their opening five away games of the following season and move up a place to 11th courtesy of the draw.
