LONDON — Tottenham Hotspur will head into Christmas in good spirits after a 2-1 home win over Burnley sent them into the Premier League's top-six.
In-form Harry Kane gave them the lead on the 21st minute when he headed in a Nacer Chadli cross. The striker had set the move in motion when he found the Belgian with a quickly taken free-kick.
Ashley Barnes stunned White Hart Lane just six minutes later when he curled in a shot from 20 yards to pull Burnley level. Tottenham were back in the lead soon enough, though, when Erik Lamela scored what proved to be the decisive goal. The Argentinian cut in from the left and placed it beyond the reach of Tom Heaton to contest Barnes' own strike as the best of the game.
Read on for the winners and losers from Saturday afternoon's meeting.
