Norwich 0-5 Tottenham: Spurs secure Champions League qualification ahead of Arsenal

Tottenham secured qualification to the Champions League with a five-star display against Norwich

Spurs only needed a point on the final day to finish fourth ahead of north London rivals Arsenal but cruised to victory at Carrow Road.

Arsenal beat Everton 5-1 but that result at Emirates Stadium did not matter.

Heung-min Son scored two goals to share with Premier League Golden Boot with Mohamed Salah.

Kulusevski gave Tottenham a perfect start with a goal after 16 minutes.

Rodrigo Benatancur ran onto a long ball forward and squared it to Kulusevski to poke home from six yards to ease any Spurs nerves.

A horrible mistake from Norwich goalkeeper Tim Krul put Tottenham on course for the Champions League as the away side doubled their lead on 32 minutes.

As Norwich tried to play out from the back, Krul passed it straight Bentancur who crossed for Kane to head into an empty net.

Kulusevski added a third with a brilliant goal after 64 minutes when he was played in down the right, cut inside and curled a brilliant shot into the top corner.

Son scored a fourth for Spurs on 70 minutes scored again with a brilliant goal five minutes later to cap a fine season.
