Act 4: Tottenham has a hero arise

With the clock not even yet at 60 and less than 10 minutes after Mura had halved their deficit, Santo was bringing in the big guns for Tottenham. Lucas Moura, Heung-Min Son, and Harry Kane came on replacing Bryan, Dele, and Scarlett.

The change in tempo was evident almost immediately as Son played Kane in and Spurs talisman just missed being fouled in the box as Obradovic barely beat Harry to the ball. That moment was really just a harbinger of things to come from a Mura perspective.

First came a searing pass from Moura to a flashing Kane for the 3-1 Spurs lead. Then came Son in behind the defence playing the nice square ball to make it 4-1 in favor of Spurs. Less than 20 minutes on the pitch and a Kane brace had Tottenham back in command.

From there, a nice little pass from Lo Celso found Kane behind the defence and alone in the box for the fifth and final goal.

Harry Kane had a hattrick and most importantly Tottenham had won While it was not necessarily a game following the story we all wanted and expected in the end the outcome was just what Spurs needed.
