Tottenham edge past Southampton to consolidate second place

LONDON -- Three thoughts on Tottenham's 2-1 win vs. Southampton in the Premier League.

1. Ten in a row for Tottenham at home

Can Tottenham cope without Harry Kane? On this evidence, they can, but it was a little too close for comfort against Southampton as they extended their winning run at home to 10 Premier League matches with a 2-1 victory.

Their record sequence began with a 3-2 win against West Ham in Kane's first home game after seven weeks out with an ankle injury. The England striker suffered a similar injury last weekend and, although he is only expected to miss a month this time, the question before this game was whether Spurs would be the same without their leading scorer.
