Great night for Tottenham, who gave the best possible response to the FA Cup elimination at the feet of Middlesbrough. At home, Antonio Conte’s side conceded and thrashed Everton (Andre Gomes did not leave the bench), 5-0, in a match in the 28th round of the Premier League.
In the 14th minute, Michael Keane scored an own goal Tottenham In front of the mark and still in the first half, the regular Son Heung-Min (17′) and Harry Kane (37′) gave volume to the score. In the second half, Tottenham took the defeat, taking advantage of a goal from Sergio Reguilon directly at the opening (46 minutes) and the second for Kani on the night after 10 minutes. The striker hit 176 Premier League goals, ousting former France international Thierry Henry (175) into sixth place on the all-time top scorer in the tournament, a goal now equaling Frank Lampard.
The London side now have the same 45 points as West Ham in fifth and are continuing their dream of qualifying for the Champions League, remembering Antonio Conte’s side still have two games to play. Fourth is Arsenal, who has 45 points and three matches left. Everton (three games down) are 17th and just one point ahead of Burnley, the first team in the relegation zones.
