What were the highlights of Tottenham's 3-0 victory over Cardiff?
Kane. The England captain getting a warm welcome here in South Wales, and getting himself into the box as well, Kane. Well, not the best goal he'll ever score, but it's timely. Tottenham Hotspur hit the front. Archer slid in, but he's missed it. Here's Eriksen, and it's two. Christian Eriksen, inside 12 minutes, has doubled Tottenham's lead here. Here's Sissoko, powerful first forward from Kane into Song. And Son slides over the line.
They're all getting in on the act here.
How did Harry Kane's early goal impact the game?
A 3-0 win for Tottenham to take them back to second in the table. Two of their goalscorers, Eriksen and Son, are with Greg Whelan.
Guys, very well done. Christian, it was straightforward in the end, but how welcome was that after Saturday?
No, a lot. I think we all know how it felt losing against Wolves at home. It was a very, very big disappointment and we had to bounce back. We were lucky with the first goal and a little bit of a toe punch and then afterwards we kept possession and had the ball for the rest of the game really.
Son, were you playing as a team with a point to prove today after the weekend?
I think what Christian said, we bounced back. This is the main thing because we are disappointed, of course, but I think it was a very important game to get three points again and show our mentality and our character. This, I think, was the most important. Luckily, we scored an early goal and we had both positions for I don't know how many positions, but I think we deserved to get three points and I think we should score a little bit more.
Scoring as early as you did, so early, what bearing did that have on the game as a whole, do you feel?
I think after we scored early goals, everyone had confidence. We played a little bit more aggressively than normally. We had a lot of possibility to create a chance. I think in the first half we scored three goals and in the second half it was more... Relaxed in the first half, so I think we deserve to get three points here.
How much do you enjoy your goal today from a technical point of view?
I think I said to Sonny it was a bad pass. Otherwise I would have taken it forward and straight to the keeper, but I think all the players know in training this is what I do mostly between the legs and getting the keeper on the wrong foot. Luckily today it went in, so it was a good feeling.
Do you feel you put a little bit of pressure on Manchester City and Liverpool this afternoon?
I hope we put pressure on everyone. I mean, also, we took pressure a bit off ourselves, but we know we'll be back on in a few days for the next game. So that's how it goes. And there's so many games coming up and any game is really, really important. I mean, we dropped points last week and it felt like we were like 18 points behind, but we're not far off. And to bounce back today gave us a lot of confidence and to go into the rest of the season.
So I'm looking forward to Manchester City versus Liverpool on Thursday.
Yeah, of course. You always have enjoyed watching football and Premier League, especially in this big game, so I'm going to watch. I don't support anyone, but I'm going to watch the game and enjoy it.
In the meantime, Christian, you're the Premier League man of the match. Son, if you did the honours this time for us, well done, guys.
What did Christian Eriksen say about bouncing back after the Wolves loss?
Well, they're a point ahead of Manchester City. They're six points behind Liverpool, having played a game more than them, with City and Liverpool set to face each other on Thursday. Should we start talking about Spurs as being in the title mix again?
Definitely. Half the season is gone. Most definitely. A lot of hiccup against Wolves, which would have concerned the manager. We've got a reaction tonight, albeit they've got a great helping hand inside two minutes, but I think they're always going to win tonight. Like I said before, I think they've got some really good players in Eriksen and so on, some special players along with Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Alderweireld really solid at the back, his partner Sanchez. They're a team filled with very good players. I think after the Wolves game, the manager would have been concerned,
