Tottenham shrugged off the loss of Harry Kane as Lucas Moura's hat-trick moved Spurs up to third in the Premier League with a 4-0 win over Huddersfield, while Cardiff slipped closer to relegation with a 2-0 loss at Burnley on Saturday.

Kane is expected to miss the rest of the season due to ankle ligament damage suffered in the victory over Manchester City 1-0 in the first leg of a Champions League quarter-final in midweek. Dele Alli was also sidelined by a broken hand, while Mauricio Pochettino took the chance to rest some other key personnel, including Son Heung-min, ahead of the second leg against City on Wednesday. Lucas took his chance to shine against the already relegated Terriers to show Pochettino he could be an important weapon in Kane's absence as Spurs look to tie down a top-four finish.
