What happened to Son Heung-min when he received Golden Boot award after tying with Mohamed Salah

It was a day to remember for all connected with Tottenham as Antonio Conte's men clinched a Champions League place away at Norwich City on Sunday. Having a two-point advantage over Arsenal going into the final day, Spurs knew even a point would be good enough to secure fourth due to their superior goal difference.

Any pre-match nerves in the Tottenham away end were settled rather quickly with Dejan Kulusevski converting from Rodrigo Bentancur's pass, before Harry Kane doubled the advantage in the 32nd minute with a header. Grabbing a third through a Kulusevski screamer just past the hour mark, it wasn't long until Son Heung-min got in on the act as he hit a double to complete the 5-0 triumph.

Going into the game one behind Mohamed Salah in the race for the Premier League Golden Boot, things didn't appear to be going the Spurs attacker's way following a number of missed chances at the start of the second half. Seconds after seeing Tim Krul deny him, Son made no mistake with his next attempt as he found the bottom corner before running over the celebrate with the jubilant away fans after drawing level with the Liverpool man.
