Tottenham secured a huge victory over Luton Town in the race for Champions League football this past weekend. The Lilywhites entered the March international break off the back of a hugely disappointing 3-0 defeat to Fulham however they were able to pick up three points at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium despite falling behind early on.
Tahith Chong was the beneficiary of a mistake by Dejan Kulusevski after just a few minutes with the ball eventually reaching the former Manchester United man inside the box and his effort flew back across goal beyond Guglielmo Vicario. As a result of the goal, Spurs have conceded first in their last five home games, although four of those have resulted in victories.
Despite heading into the interval behind, there was plenty of time to turn the game on its head with substitute Brennan Johnson making an immediate impact. A darting run down the right from the Wales international, via a one-two with Pedro Porro, allowed him space to cross and his fierce ball in was turned into his own net by Issa Kabore.
Captain Son Heung-min then netted a late winner, finishing a flowing attack with his shot deflecting in off Daiki Hashioka. With three points secured, Spurs moved back into the top four although Villa look set to reclaim that spot at the expense of Wolves.
