SON HEUNG-MIN came to the rescue from the spot to salvage a point for Tottenham Hotspur against Bournemouth.
The Cherries arrived in North London hoping to maintain their push for Europe while Spurs were looking to close the gap to the top half.

The Cherries flew out of the traps and should have been in the lead within 30 seconds if not for a save from Guglielmo Vicario.
But they would get their deserved opener as Marcus Tavernier fired home after being picked out by Milos Kerkez.
Evanilson then doubled in the lead in the 65th minute as the Cherries looked set to run away with the three points in North London.
That was until Pape Matar Sarr’s fortunate cross found its way looping over Kepa Arrizabalaga and dragging Spurs back into the contest.
The on-loan Chelsea star then brought down Son Heung-min in the 82nd minute to give away a penalty.
The South Korean took on the responsibility to take the penalty and coolly converted to level the match.
