GOAL! Tottenham 2-0 Newcastle (Richarlison, 38 mins)

Spurs double their lead and it’s a long-awaited goal for Richarlison. Just his second league goal of the season and it’s a rinse-and-repeat of their first goal.

Son does the hard work down the left, beating Trippier to the byline and cutting it back for the Brazilian who sweeps home with ease from inside the six-yard box.

GOAL! Tottenham 1-0 Newcastle (Udogie 26 mins)

Spurs hit the front! A deserved lead for the home side as Udogie turns home Son’s vicious low cross from close range.

Wonderful work from the Tottenham captain and the full-back couldn’t miss from there. Another game in which Spurs take the lead - can they hold on this time?
