Tottenham Hotspur entertained Burnley at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier today as they looked to secure all three points at home. Spurs made a quick start to the game and got their noses ahead in the tenth minute thanks to Richarlison’s effort. Thomas Frank’s men went into the half-time break 1-0 up on the scoreline.
Richarlison doubled his team’s advantage at the hour mark before Brennan Johnson got his name on the scoresheet just six minutes later. The match ended with Tottenham earning a convincing 3-0 win in front of their home fans.
