Spurs centre-forward Harry Kane netted the only goal of the game, providing a perfectly-weighted side-footed pass to right-wing-back Pedro Porro, who returned the favour with a lovely cross that the England captain headed past a helpless Sam Johnstone on the stroke of half-time. But on Sunday, the Lillywhites released a statement detailing that there was an allegation of racial abuse towards Son during the match.
