Harry Kane 10/10

It’s easy to run out of superlatives to express just how good Tottenham’s ace is. The versatile forward has added an incredible playmaking quality to his portfolio this season. He yet again dropped deep into midfield to spray with sublime accuracy and angle a bevy of telling through balls, most of which to the appreciative Son Heung-min. He bagged Spurs opener thanks to a slaloming, devastating run by Lamela, whose initial shot rebounded off the post perfectly for Kane to deposit. He bagged a second after the interval, his fourth goal in less than a week at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Dinamo found it almost to impossible to dispossess Spurs’ marksman, who had it all his own way in north London.

Dele Alli 7/10

Made all the right runs, facilitating space for his teammates to either find him or take the space themselves. His touch wasn’t quite on, though. If his touch was better, Dele would have had a few clear sights on goal. He made a few swift, incisive passes and impacted the match well. There were a lot of positives from Dele’s display, the Englishman continuing on the right path to redemption.

Subs

Gareth Bale 8/10

As his first act, Gareth hit an absolutely sumptuous, sublime outside of the right boot cross to Bergwijn, who almost scored on the volley. Struck a dipping, venomous free kick that was saved flamboyantly by Livakovic. Any further to the left and it would have been 3-0.

Lucas Moura 7/10

Does what he does best. Runs directly at opposing defenders, unnerving even the most agile back pedlars.

Steven Bergwijn 7/10

Almost scored with his first attempt on target, his right volley saved well by Livakovic.
