MOMENT OF THE MATCH

Dele Alli's beautiful flick, which teed up Kane in the build-up to Tottenham's penalty, was hard to beat. Alli is proving to be a wonderful player for this Spurs side, and surely for England, too.

TWEET OF THE MATCH

STAR PLAYER

It is difficult to look beyond Harry Kane who was a constant threat for Spurs throughout the 90 minutes. He scored from the spot, hit the woodwork twice, and netted in injury time to complete Tottenham's victory. He has now scored 31 Premier League goals since January 1, 2015, an incredible run.

VIEW FROM THE BENCH

Mauricio Pochettino was calm and collected as his side surged to a fifth straight win in all competitions. The same could not be said for his counterpart in the opposing dugout with a frustrated Alex Neil ruing a disastrous first half. Norwich have now lost their last four Premier League matches.

MOAN OF THE MATCH

Where were Norwich in the opening 45 minutes? Neil's team were short on sharpness, spirit and fight in the first half but they were a side transformed after the interval.
