Ange Postecoglou is not usually prone to shows of affection with his players but when Richarlison squeezed his second and Tottenham's third goal past Martin Dubravka on Sunday, the Australian welcomed in Pedro Porro for a bear hug.
Porro, it is fair to say, had earned it. The Spaniard made the goal which killed off Newcastle with a sublime pass - no back lift, perfectly weighted - into Richarlison to cap an outstanding performance as Spurs ended a run of five games without a win.
