Tottenham ended a five-match winless run in scintillating fashion as they thumped Newcastle 4-1 in London.
Destiny Udogie opened the scoring after 26 minutes when he tapped in a cross from Son Heung-Min, who had beaten Kieran Trippier on the right of the box.
Son turned provider again 12 minutes later as he danced through the box and teed up Richarlison for a close-range finish.
Richarlison had his second of the night on the hour mark as he latched on to Pedro Porro’s cross-field ball and netted against the run of play as Newcastle came out fighting.
Eighty-five minutes in, Son was rewarded with a goal after converting a penalty.
Joelinton was able to snatch a consolation for the visitors a minute into stoppage time but the defeat is a crushing blow for the Magpies.
