  • NUNO’S VERDICT

    Nuno Espirito Santo hailed his side’s battling qualities as they secured a third successive win to go top of the fledgling Premier League.

    He said: “It feels good. I think we did a good game, a consistent game. We knew the threat of Watford.

    “It was hard to find the spaces and gaps. In the second half we improved and had chances.

    “I’m very happy as the players worked very hard.

    “I’m proud of the players. They are the ones that deliver. We are on the way.

    “We’re not perfect but we’re becoming solid and compact, and everyone is working for each other.”

  • FT: TOTTENHAM 1-0 WATFORD

    Spurs go top of the league thanks to a third straight 1-0 win.

    Son Heung-min got the only goal of the game just before half-time when his free-kick from the left evaded everyone and found its way in at the far post.

    Spurs weren’t at their fluent best but Watford only had a few half-chances without really threatening Hugo Lloris.

    With Harry Kane staying on, it’s turned out to be a pretty good start to the season for the north London side.
