What were the highlights of Tottenham's 6-2 victory over Everton?

Graeme Souness 0:07
Nicely worked between Mamello and Eriksen. Mamello for Son. He's in. It's five for Spurs. Left on by Davies. From the left it's Son. Kane, he's got the double. And Spurs have got six.
Unknown 0:25
Brilliant game. Terrific afternoon for Spurs. Two for Kane, two for Son. One special goal from Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli in the first half scoring as well. Six of the best for Spurs now within six of the leaders. He was man of the match. Mauricio Pochettino must be absolutely delighted with Son today.

How did Heung-min Son and Harry Kane perform in the match?

Unknown 0:41
Let's hear from him with Harry Kane and both chatting to Greg Whelan.
Greg Whelan 0:46
Harry Son, great afternoon's work. Harry, how satisfying to get a result like that here?
Harry Kane 0:51
Yeah, no, it's massive. We knew it was going to be a tough game. Obviously, we went 1-0 behind. A bit unlucky, I thought, because I thought we started the game well. But after that, we created some good chances, we took them. And then second half, yeah, we dominated the ball and the chances again. So, I think it's a tough team. It's a very good result.
Greg Whelan 1:09
Son, two goals for you today. Were you particularly pleased with how you converted the first one? You still had a lot to do after the defensive mix-up.
Heung-min Son 1:15
No, I just kept running because I just kept running.

What role did Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli play in the game?

Heung-min Son 1:21
The ball was a surprise in my foot. It was a difficult angle, but I just tried to hit the target. It was brilliant timing for us because we were all nil down. I think it's very important to score at this time. I think we deserve this win. I think we are really happy.
Greg Whelan 1:38
That was the key, wasn't it? To respond when you did, as quickly as you did, to go in behind.
Heung-min Son 1:43
I think what Harry said is right. We dominated the game from the start and we created so many chances. We are unlucky, we are 1-0 down, but I think we showed our character, our mentality. We bounced back again and scored six goals here in a difficult place. We are happy to get three points here.
Greg Whelan 2:05
Harry, two more against Everton and at one point did it look like it might not be your afternoon?
Harry Kane 2:10
I know, yeah, I had a few to start off with, missed a couple, but look, that's part of being a striker.

What did Mauricio Pochettino say about the team's performance?

Harry Kane 2:15
I knew the way we was playing, creating chances, I was going to get more throughout the game and I've been moaning at this man this season for not assisting me, so thankfully in the second half he put one on the plate and I was happy to finish it off.
Greg Whelan 2:26
Son, in a weekend in which we've seen both Manchester City and Chelsea lose, how do you see this result today?
Heung-min Son 2:32
No, actually, we don't care about other teams. Of course, the game is a bit closer, but I think we focus on us and we focus on game by game and it's possible to get three points like always and we try our best and we see what's going to happen. It's a long race and we see what happens.
Greg Whelan 2:49
It is, but currently you are two points behind Manchester City. Are you title contenders?
Harry Kane 2:54
Well, look, I think everyone's talking about Liverpool and Man City and we're just kind of doing well like we normally do. So there's still a long way to go. We're in a good period. December's been great for us so far. We've had a great week. So it's important we carry on. We've got games coming up thick and fast, but games we can definitely win. So, yeah, we've just got to have a strong December, January.

What were the critical moments that turned the game in Spurs' favor?

Harry Kane 3:14
February all the way through and pretty much see where we're at come April time.
Greg Whelan 3:19
Appreciate that. Great result today. Sonia Rosso, the Premier League man of the match. Harry, do the honours for us.
Heung-min Son 3:24
Well done, guys. Thank you very much.
Unknown 3:26
Well, as Harry Kane says, everyone's talking about Liverpool and Manchester City. Should we be talking about Spurs?
David Jones 3:32
Yeah, definitely. You asked that before and I'll say this again, provided I can keep Harry fit.
Unknown 3:36
But you see the contribution from everybody in that Spurs team today, right?
David Jones 3:39
Yeah, they are the real deal. I mean, there's no doubt about it. Spurs, when they're firing, are as good a watch as anyone.

How did Everton's strategy impact their performance against Spurs?

David Jones 3:44
We saw that today. I mean, life for them was made a wee bit easier the way Everton played. They played an open, easy-to-play-against game for the better teams. Coming here... That will happen again unless they change against the better teams.
