LONDON (AP) — Son Heung-min's late goal lifted Tottenham over struggling Luton 2-1 in the English Premier League on Saturday and maintained the pressure on Aston Villa in the race for a top-four finish.
Spurs came close to conceding their first home draw against a Luton side locked in the relegation battle, but the South Korea captain decided otherwise in the 86th minute after a quick break, concluding the move with a shot that took a deflection.
Tottenham moved to fourth place, level on points with Aston Villa, which hosted Wolves later.
Third-placed Manchester City and leader Arsenal meet on Sunday with just one point separating them. Second-placed Liverpool hosts Brighton on the same day.
