Week 33 of the English Premier League sees Spurs closing the gap to four points, with six games to go, after destroying Bournemouth at home while Chelsea lost to Man Utd at Old Trafford.
Spurs closed the gap to just four points after annihilating Bournemouth 4-0 at White Hart Lane. It was Spurs 12th home league win on the spin, and 15 in all competitions. The place is a relative fortress.
Bournemouth didn’t half make it easy though. Eddie Howe’s side has not won a Premier League game away from home this side of the New Year festivities, and he must be concerned about the way his team have lacked desire once safe, particularly since they finished last season in the same way.
Harry Kane returned to the starting lineup for the first time since injuring his ankle. It was a solid comeback scoring one and assisting for Son Heung-Min to score his 19th goal of the season. Kane’s delightful turn and finish was his 13th goal in 13 games and 20 goals in the Premier League. He is only the third player behind Alan Shearer, Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Thierry Henry to score 20+ league goals three seasons on the tamp. Moussa Dembele and Vincent Janssen were also on the scoresheet.
