After a short two-day break, Burnley chose a tight defense, but Son Heung-min and Kane fired shots whenever there was a gap.
And a penalty kick awarded for a handball foul in extra time in the first half was scored by Kane as a valuable opener.
Son Heung-min, who was competing for the top scorer, actively aimed for the goal in the second half.
However, the opposing goalkeeper’s huge save prevented Heung-Min Son’s goal-scoring streak.
In the 20th minute of the second half, a nonstop shot hit by a fall was blocked, followed by a decisive turning shot instinctively caught by an outstretched arm.
Son Heung-min, who was disappointed whenever a pass did not come from a shooting opportunity, was unable to close the gap with top scorer Salah, but his team victory moved Tottenham to fourth place, continuing his hopes of advancing to the Champions League.
If Arsenal win all the remaining two matches, hopes will go to waste…
If not, Tottenham Hotspur may be able to advance on their own.

“I would be lying if I said I wasn’t aiming for the top scorer. It’s all a player’s dream, but now it’s much more important for my team to finish in fourth place and qualify for the Champions League.”
Son Heung-min goes on a hunt for two rabbits: the first Asian player to become the top scorer and the Champions League ticket in a match once morest the lowest ranked Noritage a week later.
