We made it back-to-back wins in the Premier League on Monday night as we put five past Everton without reply.

Returning to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for our first outing at our north London home in 22 days, we got off to the perfect start as an own goal from Michael Keane and a strike from Heung-Min Son put us two to the good with just 17 minutes on the clock. And when Harry Kane added a third, eight minutes before the break, we were cruising.

Sergio Reguilon then came off the bench at the start of the second half and made an immediate impact, scoring within 41 seconds of his arrival before Harry wrapped up the scoring 10 minutes later as he emphatically volleyed home our fifth.

Here’s a look at some of the key numbers from the game…
