    Kane penalty helps Spurs move into fourth

    Harry Kane's first-half penalty was enough for Tottenham Hotspur to beat Burnley 1-0 and move back into the top four.

    Spurs started strongly, with Son Heung-min forcing a fine save from Nick Pope before Nathan Collins cleared Kane's effort off the line.

    In the eighth minute of first-half stoppage time, Spurs took the lead through Kane's spot-kick, his second of the week, awarded after a VAR review for a handball by Ashley Barnes.

    Barnes almost equalised for Burnley on 62 minutes, but his 20-yard strike hit the outside of a post.

    Spurs pressed for a second, but found Pope in inspired form as he made two stunning stops to deny Son.

    A third win in four takes Spurs to 68 points, two ahead of Arsenal, who play Newcastle United on Monday.

    Burnley are 18th on 34 points, a point and a place behind Leeds United, over whom they have a match in hand.
