WHO'S GOING TO BE YOUR

MAN OF THE MATCH?

Adams finishes turnaround as Southampton beat Spurs

Che Adams scored a late winner as Southampton twice came from behind to earn a dramatic 3-2 victory at Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs took the lead on 18 minutes when Jan Bednarek diverted a low cross from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg into his own net.

Southampton responded with an equaliser just five minutes later, as Romain Perraud found Armando Broja, who poked past Hugo Lloris.

Both teams then hit the crossbar either side of half-time, Perraud striking against the woodwork before Harry Kane went agonisingly close with a header.

Antonio Conte’s side restored their lead in the 70th minute, when Son Heung-min slotted in from Lucas Moura's cross.  

Southampton then scored twice in four minutes, both goals set up by James Ward-Prowse crosses, firstly for Mohamed Elyounoussi and then Adams.

Substitute Steven Bergwijn thought he had rescued a point in stoppage time, but his goal was overturned by VAR for offside.

Spurs stay seventh on 36 points, while Southampton go 10th with 28 points.
