France goalkeeper Lloris appeared angry at Son’s perceived lack of effort, but they soon made up and were hugging on the pitch at the end of the game, celebrating three points that came courtesy of Michael Keane’s first-half own-goal.
I think to concede a chance a few seconds before half-time because we didn’t make a press annoyed me but yeah, that’s football.”
That drama was the main talking point of an insipid game, settled by Keane’s first-half own goal.
The win reignites Spurs’ European hopes as they move back into eighth ahead of a midweek round of Premier League fixtures.
Everton never really threatened and only forced Lloris into routine saves in a defeat which damages their own European ambitions.
They are four points behind Spurs in eighth, which could be enough to qualify for the Europa League, but boss Carlo Ancelotti has not given up hope.
