Tottenham revived its hopes of beating Arsenal to the final Champions League qualification position by overwhelming its fierce north London rival in a 3-0 win in the Premier League.
Harry Kane scored twice for Tottenham—including one from the penalty spot—and Son Heung-min added the other just after halftime on May 12 to move Tottenham one point behind fourth-place Arsenal. The Gunners had center-back Rob Holding sent off in the 33rd minute when the score was 1-0.
There are two games remaining for each team and fifth-place Tottenham's finish to the season looks easier than Arsenal's. While Tottenham face two of the bottom four in Burnley and already-relegated Norwich, Arsenal must travel to Newcastle before a home game against a resurgent Everton.
