Heung-min Son and Harry Kane reach Tottenham landmarks as Mourinho outwits Marcelo Bielsa and Leeds

Heung-min Son’s 100th Tottenham goal came courtesy of an assist from Harry Kane as the pair got Spurs back to winning ways with a 3-0 win over Wolves.

The duo are now only three goals away from overtaking Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba as the most prolific combination in Premier League history as they teamed up for a 33rd time in the Premier League.

Son’s 100th goal strike for Spurs came in between a Kane goal and a Toby Alderweireld header to end a four-match winless streak in the top-flight.

Kane coolly tucked away a penalty, with the England captain having now scored against all 30 Premier League sides he has faced, after Steven Bergwijn was fouled just inside the penalty area.

Alderweireld’s second-half header, with many thanks to goalline technology, was over the line by a mere millimetre.

Either way, the match represented a tactical victory for the pragmatism of Jose Mourinho over the more expressive Marcelo Bielsa, as Spurs nullified the Leeds charge and exposed their weaknesses in defence, as had been expected.

The only negative for Mourinho came in the dying moments of the game as Matt Doherty was sent off following a second yellow card, meaning Tottenham ended with ten men.
