Heung-Min Son and Gareth Bale completed a remarkable 2-1 comeback win for Tottenham against Southampton in Ryan Mason’s first game as interim boss, after Spurs supporters had earlier staged a protest against club chairman Daniel Levy.
A turbulent week for the club, which has already seen them sign up to and then exit the Super League amid fan outrage, and surprisingly sack head coach Jose Mourinho, will take another twist on Sunday in their Carabao Cup final against Manchester City, but against Southampton, the drama fell in their favour, with a late VAR call allowing Son to strike from the spot.
The visitors led through Danny Ings’ header on 30 minutes but Spurs, who had been below their best in the first half, improved after the break and replied with Bale’s bending effort on the hour.
