Tottenham Hotspur Kane (45+8 pen) 1
Burnley 0
So now the pressure is on Arsenal. Tottenham have surged past their local rivals to top the north London mini-league, occupying fourth place and perhaps timing their charge to perfection. A second win in four days again included a contentious penalty but, regardless of why they are awarded, Harry Kane converts them, and his 37th goal of the season for club and country left Burnley contemplating life in the Championship.
The Champions League may instead beckon for Tottenham after a win, if not necessarily a margin of victory, that reflected their transformation. The low point of Antonio Conte's reign was defeat at Burnley, prompting his histrionic threat to quit, but he is close to making this season a success. He needs only a win at Norwich and for Arsenal to drop points.
