Tottenham back on winning track with 3-1 over Bournemouth

Tottenham put the disastrous 2-4 Brighton loss behind them and won 3-1 at home versus Bournemouth to close the gap to top 4.

Sarr capitalized on the opportunity, finishing with a long-range shot into the right corner of the net to open the scoring – 1:0 for Tottenham.

In the 72nd minute, Son received an outstanding pass from Lo Celso, exploiting a gap in the defense. The Korean forward directed a precise shot to the right post, leaving the Bournemouth goalkeeper helpless – 2:0 for Tottenham.
