Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham are back into the Premier League’s top four after a 3-2 victory over Brentford at their North London home.
Despite conceding the opener to a classy Neal Maupay finish, Tottenham bagged three second half goals to all-but put the result to bed.
Destiny Udogie capitalised on a fast counterattack to net the opener before Brennan Johnson ran one in only a minute later.
Brazilian striker Richarlison continued his run of form, scoring his 12th goal in all competitions this season and his seventh League goal under Postecoglou.
Ivan Toney jumped on a horrific mistake from Udogie after the Spurs fullback delivered a blind backpass to keeper Guglielmo Vicario that fell right in the lap of the Bees skipper.
Toney made no mistake and made it 3-2 in the 67th minute.
James Maddison started for the first time since returning from injury and his impact was instant as the English international set up a number of their attacking plays.
