Southampton 1-1 Tottenham: Ings thumps Spurs; Kane injured
The HinduDanny Ings continued his hot streak with a brilliant individual winner as Southampton earned a 1-0 Premier League victory at home to a lacklustre Tottenham, which lost Harry Kane to injury. Spurs then lost Tanguy Ndombele to injury and his replacement Giovani Lo Celso had a shot deflected wide before Jan Vertonghen missed a brilliant chance at the back post after goalkeeper Alex McCarthy recovered from fumbling Kane's drive to deny Dele Alli. Vertonghen's tame header in the 69th minute was the first effort Spurs managed in the second half and the day got even worse when Kane went off after turning in Christian Eriksen's pass, only to see the offside flag raised as he hobbled away. Spurs took just four points from a possible 12 over Christmas compared to Southampton's impressive haul of 10, with Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl continuing to steer his team up the league.
