Frank’s side threatened little for the rest of the half, allowing Burnley to grow into the game, but a moment of magic from Richarlison put Spurs in control — Kudus wriggled free down the right and sent in a cross for the Brazilian, whose acrobatic volley left Dubravka with no chance. Brennan Johnson added a third six minutes later.

It's early days, yet Richarlison appears a vital piece in the next incarnation of Tottenham Hotspur under coach Thomas Frank.
