Southampton 2-3 Tottenham LIVE! Kane goal – Premier League match stream, latest score and goal updates today
2 min read
Tottenham make the trip down to the south coast to take on a Southampton side rooted to the bottom of the Premier League. Antonio Conte’s side saw fifth-placed Newcastle cut the gap to them in fourth to just a point on Friday night and are under pressure at St Mary’s Stadium to ensure they head into the international break in the driving seat.
Spurs last time out enjoyed a routine win against Nottingham Forest to round off a difficult week for the club on a slightly positive note. With now only one game a week to focus on, following the club’s Champions League exit, the hope is that Conte’s experience will get them over the line for the second season running.
Saints, meanwhile, lost to Brentford on Wednesday but have taken points off both Chelsea and Manchester United under manager Ruben Selles’ watch. Fighting for their lives, Southampton will prove tricky for Spurs. Follow all the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog! Dan Kilpatrick will be providing expert analysis from the ground.

70min: Triple substitution for Southampton. Elyounoussi, Stuart Armstrong and Adams are off, Alcarez, Kamaldeen and Mara are on.
Kane goal: That’s Kane’s 12th goal in 14 games against Southampton. Incredible record.

GOAL!
65min: That’s better from Kane!
Climbs highest to head home a brilliant Kulusevski cross towards the back post.
63min: It’s all very scrappy. Lots of mistakes, misplaced passes and strong tackles.
60min: Spurs break over the halfway line and it’s four vs three in their favour… Kane travels and travels and travels with the ball, before ignoring his team-mates and blaxing over the bar.
A real waste, that.
