London: Son Heung-Min struck twice as Tottenham Hotspur maintained the pressure on Premier League leaders Chelsea with a 4-0 victory against Watford at a sun-soaked White Hart Lane on Saturday.
Before Antonio Conte's side were due to face Bournemouth late on Saturday night, Spurs made the most of the chance to close the gap at the head of the table to four points with Dele Alli and Eric Dier also on target.
The chances of Tottenham overhauling Chelsea may be slim, but manager Mauricio Pochettino can be satisfied his side are not going to give up the chase. After recovering from a goal down to win in the final two minutes of the mid-week trip to Swansea City, Spurs did everything that was asked of them against a poor Watford side with little still to play for this season.
All four goals were the result of outstanding finishes that demonstrated the confidence running through Pochettino's side and in particular Son, who has now scored seven goals in five games.
Three first-half goals put Spurs in control and after Son added a fourth in the 54th minute, the Spurs manager brought on Harry Kane to ease the club's leading scorer back into action.
Alli broke the deadlock with a curling right-foot strike in the 33rd minute, Dier blasted in the second six minutes later, before Son scored with another effort from distance, a low left-footed shot.
Son tapped in Kieran Trippier's cross 10 minutes into the second half to complete the scoring.
