This win is a big boost to the Tottenham side because they have gone through a lot of challenges recently. Harry Kane was not looking at the goalpost but his shot went in the right direction and outsmarted the goalkeeper. He has equaled the goal record of Jimmy Greaves after netting his 266th goal yesterday. The performance of Son Heung-min has not been encouraging because his performance has reduced to a large extent. He has not been making those solo runs and striking his usually thunder-like shots.
Three points are so helpful for Tottenham and they are only have 3 points behind Manchester United. Chance for Spurs to get a fourth position from Manchester United is so good. Harry Kane has equalized an all time goal scoring record of Greaves and it is meaningful for him after all of his contribution and loyalty for the club.
I was surprised why Son did not get a red card but only got a yellow card with his foul. Anyway, the match ended and he was not sent out, Spurs got three points with one assist from Son.
The case of Arsenal is like a dream. I never expected the Mikel Arteta's side to be at this level because the coach was inexperienced and the team is made up of a bunch of young players. Today, Arsenal can make a fortune from selling the players that have been raised from the club. It would not be a surprise that at least two or more players in Arsenal Is nominated for the Ballon d'Or this year.
Arteta and Arsenal now are actually thinking about and fighting for Premier League trophy. They are longer only only thinking about top four and they are strong enough to lift up their aim in this season.
A trophy is not an expected achievement for Arsenal at the season beginning but now, it is what they must think of. Having a good difference against Manchester City is not easy. Taking a first position from Manchester City is more difficult especially after a summer transfer season with some dramatic new players like Haaland for Manchester City.
Arteta and Arsenal are doing their jobs so well and impressive. They are making a biggest surprise since Leicester City years ago and I hope that they will have a happy ending in this season.
