Heung-min Son scores Spurs’ 100th goal in title role as Leeds is ruthless without mercy

Harry Kane and Heung-min Son teamed up once again when the Spurs achieved a 3-0 win over Leeds.

The Whites got off to a brighter start and nearly took the lead in ten minutes, as both Alioski and Bamford closed in after two typically quick attacks from the visitors.

But the Spurs connected the blow when Ezgjan Alioski dropped Steven Bergwijn just inside the box, with Kane breaking down the middle to put the hosts ahead.

And José Mourinho’s men doubled their lead just before the break when the deadly duo of Son and Kane teamed up again, the England striker set up a beautiful cross for the South Korean to hit home.

Son became a supplier just after the break when his corner was greeted by Toby Alderweireld, whose header simply went over the line despite Illan Meslier’s best efforts.

Kane, Bergwijn and Son came close again only to be repulsed by some fantastic saves from Meslier, while the tired Leeds struggled to take down an organized Spurs defense that seemed determined to shut out their opponents.

The Spurs finished the game with ten men when Matt Doherty received his marching orders after picking up a second yellow.

But Mourinho will surely be pleased with a performance that ensured a clean sheet, a three-goal win and third place in the Premier League.

The Spurs finally kill a game. The Spurs were winless in four en route to this and had been criticized for their inability in recent weeks to finish a game. But once they took the lead here, Spurs and Mourinho looked absolutely desperate to keep going and going to score.

Leeds may be the perfect opposition for that, as their expansive and relentless attacking style left a lot of holes at the rear, but nonetheless, the hosts had a real desire to make sure Leeds was dead and buried.

Harry Kane (Spurs). He has become a true workhorse for the Spurs and makes a real change in the back, in the middle and up. Awarded for his display with a goal and an assist, becoming a record with attacking partner Son.

Spurs: Lloris 6, Doherty 7, Alderweireld 7, Dier 7, Davies 6, Winks 7, Hojbjerg 7, Ndombele 8, Bergwijn 7, Kane 8, Son 8. Subs. Sissoko 6, Vinicius n / a.

5 ‘- OPPORTUNITY! Alioski absolutely hits the side net, and I’m pretty sure the fake crowd celebrated that before they quickly silenced each other.

2. 3 ‘- OPPORTUNITY! Bamford should do better here with a free header inside the box, but he’s heading. It’s a bit high for him but a better jump and I think it’s a goal.

28 ‘- PENALTY TO ESTIMATES! Alioski knocks down Bergwijn and the referee points to the spot! Right inside the box. VAR will take a look. It is given!

29 ‘- OBJECTIVE! SPURS 1 LEEDS 0 (Kane, 29) Kane breaks it in half with 17 goals this season and his 205 with Spurs.

43 ‘- OBJECTIVE! SPURS 2 LEEDS 0 (Son, 43 ‘) It’s so good. Kane to Son again when the England man throws a cross on a plate for the far end that touches the near post. It is a really beautiful cross and ending. They’re 100 for the Spurs!

50 ‘- GOAL! SPURS 3 LEEDS 0 (Alderweireld, 50 ‘) They are whipping into a corner and Alderweireld jumps higher for the header. Meslier just can’t get there in time and takes the ball into the net with the momentum of his body.

62 ‘- SAVE! What a save from Meslier, as Bergwijn faced one on one against the goalkeeper who became massive.

90 + 2 ‘- RED CARD – DOHERTY. That taints the performance a bit as Doherty is sent off for a second yellow card. Fool.
