Son Heung-min hails 'unbelievable' Leeds United after making Tottenham Hotspur history

Son became the first Spurs player beyond the UK and Ireland to score 100 goals for the club when tucking away Harry Kane's cross in Saturday's 3-0 victory.

Kane had earlier converted a penalty and Toby Alderweireld then powered home a header in the second half but Son admitted Marcelo Bielsa's Whites had provided his side with a very tough test in their latest Premier League clash.

United continued to attack throughout an end to end contest and had 18 attempts at goal compared to Tottenham's 20.

Asked if Leeds had been energetic and tricky challengers in his post-match interview on BT Sport, Son gave a puff of the cheeks and admitted: "It was a really difficult game.

"Obviously we know how they are doing, we know they are doing an unbelievable job and they are working so hard.

"We created chances from the start of the game and to get the clean sheet and 3-0 at the start of a new year is fantastic."
