Son’s stunning double helps Spurs see off Preston


Son Heung-min
Son Heung-min was one of four Spurs players to keep their starting place from the win at Fulham

Two excellent strikes by Son Heung-min and a debut goal for Arnaut Danjuma were enough to beat Preston and send Tottenham through in the FA Cup.

Spurs were frustrated by their Championship opponents until the 50th minute, when Son let fly from 30 yards.

The South Korea international then turned and finished smartly to double the lead amid torrential rain.

Danjuma, signed on loan from Villarreal this week, completed the scoring after coming on as a late substitute.

Antonio Conte’s side go into the draw for the fifth round, which takes place on Monday evening.
