Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s error and Son Heung-min’s brace helped Tottenham Hotspur to a comprehensive 4-0 victory over hapless Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.

Yves Bissouma and Cristian Romero were also among the goals as Tottenham eased to their first win of the campaign in a game they dominated against a visiting side who have conceded seven times in two games this season and are yet to score themselves.

Pickford carelessly miss-controlled a simple back pass in the first half, allowing Son to snatch the ball from him and score Tottenham’s second goal into an empty, as the home side produced an accomplished display.

Everton, without several first-choice defenders due to injury, were unable to put pressure on their hosts and manager Sean Dyche will be seeking a quick improvement when they host Bournemouth next week in what is already looking like an important game for his struggling side.

Spurs now have a corner at the other end and Kulusevski will take it. He takes it short to find Son outside the box, but the Spurs captain's delivery into the box is defended well.

Dyche's side win another corner kick as three minutes are added on at the end of the first half!

Everton are set to end the first half strongly winning back-to-back corners and putting Spurs under some pressure! But it's safe to say Vicario has had precious little to do in the first 45 minutes!

The game has resumed with Spurs temporarily down to 10 men as Van de Van waits on the sidelines. The Dutch defender looks like he will soldier on as he then makes his way back to the field to defend an Everton free-kick.

The play is stopped as Netherlands defender Van de Van is visibly in pain after landing awkwardly on his feet. He is receiving medical attention on the pitch, but it looks like the Spurs player's involvement in this game is about to end as he makes his way to the sidelines in some discomfort.

Spurs continue to attack and this time, Porro drives down the right and floats a cross into the box where Odobert meets it with a header, but his effort goes well over the goal!

Maddison is pulled down to the floor by Iroegbunam yet again in the middle of the park, meaning Everton can take a slight breather.

It's almost another goalkeeping mistake, but this time at the other end, as Vicario holds onto the ball a little too long for comfort. But the Spurs goalkeeper gets it away to safety with Calvert-Lewin lurking.

Are Everton set to endure another miserable August? They haven’t won a single Premier League game during the month in any of the last three seasons, drawing thrice and losing six times.

The skies have cleared as we are approaching the half-hour mark at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but it's been all gloom for Everton so far in this game.
