Tottenham bid farewell to 2023 on a high note as Son Heung-Min, departing for the Asian Cup, played a pivotal role in their victory against Bournemouth. The match saw Pape Matar Sarr open the scoring, but Bournemouth, in excellent form before the encounter, displayed dominance for significant periods.

Son’s absence will be felt during his international duty, evident as he stepped in to secure Tottenham’s win, while Richarlison added a third. Despite adverse weather conditions, Bournemouth struggled to capitalize on opportunities, and Alex Scott’s late goal couldn’t derail Spurs’ comfortable lead. Tottenham’s recovery from a midweek defeat showcased their resilience.

However, Rodrigo Bentancur’s early return was overshadowed by new injuries, emphasizing the team’s persistent challenges. Sarr’s goal exemplified Spurs’ capabilities, with Neto’s errors exploited. As Tottenham enters the New Year, Richarlison, tasked with filling Son’s void, maintained his impressive goal-scoring form.

Here is the highlight video of Spurs vs. Bournemouth, which ended with a 3-1 victory for Spurs.
