Tottenham mercilessly crushed Leicester’s most recent defensive disaster as Son Heung-min put an end to his goal drought with a brilliant 13-minute hat-trick.
The South Korean striker came on to curl in two fantastic goals and slot home a late third in response to Antonio Conte’s decision to bench him following a fruitless start to the season.
Spurs trailed early on due to Youri Tielemans’ penalty, and took advantage of the Foxes’ set-piece failings, with Harry Kane and Eric Dier nodding home from corners to turn the game around.
James Maddison’s spectacular first-time effort briefly brought Leicester back to even, but Wilfried Ndidi’s error allowed Rodrigo Bentancur to put Tottenham back ahead before Son, the substitute stole the show.
With the win, Spurs kept their perfect record in the Premier League and moved up to second place, level on points with league-leading Manchester City.
