Tottenham deserve every sweet pun at this moment as they have shot their way to the top of the Premier League table.
The picture may change in hours as other games are played by Son’s finely converted freekick was all they need to beat Watford, secure the vital three points and climb to the top.
As AFP reports, Son swung in a free-kick from the left wing and Bachmann was caught out as it sailed past him and the rest of the Watford defence into the far corner.
It was his second goal of the season after the forward’s winner against Manchester City on the opening weekend.
Set up by Kane’s pass, Dele Alli should have doubled the lead, but the midfielder swept just wide from close-range.
“Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have thus made a flawless start to the new domestic season and they sit two points clear of second placed West Ham after a third successive victory.
“Son settled a hard-fought clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when his free-kick caught Watford keeper Daniel Bachmann out of position in the 42nd minute,” it added, noting that Haris Kane also made a celebrated return to the pitch.
