Tottenham leapfrogged Manchester City into second place thanks to Heung-Min Sons late goal in a 1-0 win over Newcastle.Erik Lamela and Salomon Rondon hit the crossbar on either side of half-time, while Lucas Moura, Moussa Sissoko and Ayoze Perez went close to breaking the deadlock.


14 – Son Heung-Min has been directly involved in 14 goals in his last 10 appearances in all competitions for Spurs (9 goals, 5 assists). Prodigal. #TOTNEW pic.twitter.com/Rma2cqxFY4— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) February 2, 2019The pattern of Spurs attack versus Newcastle defence was set in and Moussa Sissoko tested Dubravka with a low shot, with Davinson Sanchez being muscled off the ball from the rebound with the goal gaping.When Newcastle did venture forward they were presented with good opportunities and they almost took the lead early in the second half.Rondon found space and met DeAndre Yedlin’s cross but his header hit the same upright that Lamela found while Hugo Lloris was also forced into a good diving save from Ayoze Perez. Either side of those two chances, though, Newcastle were reliant on a brilliant piece of defending from Fabian Schar to keep his side level. Christian Eriksen diverted a corner goalwards with a cute flick, but Schar acrobatically cleared off the line with millimetres to spare.It looked like it was not going to be Tottenham’s day as Fernando Llorente sent a free header over the bar, but Mauricio Pochettino’s men have the habit of rescuing themselves late on this season and again pulled it out of the bag.Llorente laid the ball off to Son, who was delighted to see his low shot squirm under Dubravka’s body for his 10th Premier League goal of the season.

I was well off here, and I know exactly why. I thought Russia's attack of Artem Dzyuba and Oleg Shatov, despite having great Russian League seasons, didn't show in Euro 2016. Plus I didn't love their defending, the veterans just couldn't keep up with the speed of Wales and Slovakia.
