Tottenham vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result and reaction after Son Heung-min inspires Spurs win
Ange Postecoglou’s side picked up their first win of the season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s error and Son Heung-min’s brace helped Tottenham Hotspur to a comprehensive 4-0 victory over hapless Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
Yves Bissouma and Cristian Romero were also among the goals as Tottenham eased to their first win of the campaign in a game they dominated against a visiting side who have conceded seven times in two games this season and are yet to score themselves.
Pickford carelessly miss-controlled a simple back pass in the first half, allowing Son to snatch the ball from him and score Tottenham’s second goal into an empty, as the home side produced an accomplished display.
Everton, without several first-choice defenders due to injury, were unable to put pressure on their hosts and manager Sean Dyche will be seeking a quick improvement when they host Bournemouth next week in what is already looking like an important game for his struggling side.

Everton, meanwhile, finished 15th last season and Sean Dyche’s side began their new campaign with a 3-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion at Goodison Park last Saturday. Kaoru Mitoma, Danny Welbeck and Simon Adingra all scored past the Toffees who finished with 10 men after 39-year-old defender Ashley Young saw a red card midway through the second half. Everton’s last league win against Spurs came on the opening day of the 2020-21 season when a Dominic Calvert-Lewin goal proved to be the difference between the two sides.

Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham are looking for their first win of the 2024-25 season after settling for a 1-1 draw with Leicester City in their opening fixture last week. Pedro Porro had given Spurs the lead in the first half, but they were made to pay for their inability to kill off the game when 37-year-old Jamie Vardy equalised for newly promoted Leicester in the 57th minute at King Power Stadium. Spurs, who finished two points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa last season, will aim to get their season up and running against the Toffees in front of their own supporters today.
