Tottenham missed a host of chances but were ultimately rewarded for their persistence as Micky van de Ven’s first goal for the club saw them beat Luton 1-0 at Kenilworth Road to go top of the Premier League.
Richarlison and James Maddison were among those to squander presentable opportunities in the first half, which ended in disappointment for Spurs as Yves Bissouma was booked for diving and sent down the tunnel for two yellow cards in the space of just 11 minutes.
