The South Korean scored his fifth goal in four games to earn his side their first win in the Champions League this season
Son Heung-min scored his fifth goal of the season to give Tottenham a crucial 1-0 win away to CSKA Moscow in the Champions League.
Dele Alli hit the crossbar as Spurs came closest to finding a breakthrough in the first half.
Despite enjoying more of the ball, it looked as if Mauricio Pochettino’s side would have to settle for a point in Russia, only for the in-form Son – who scored twice in Saturday’s victory over Middlesbrough – to force a late effort past Igor Akinfeev.
That goal proved to be enough for victory, with the South Korea international’s five strikes from as many matches in 2016-17 the same tally he managed from his previous 37 club appearances.
