'It's very sad': Son Heung-min rues Tottenham loss after Antonio Conte's side are humbled by Leicester, and insists the result showed 'the Premier League has a high level'

Tottenham forward Son Heung-min branded his side's 4-1 hammering by Leicester 'very sad'.

Antonio Conte's side were looking to build on a good run of results at the King Power Stadium but were embarrassed by the Foxes after leading 1-0.

They took the lead through Ridrigo Bentancur but Nampalys Mendy, James Maddison, Kelechi Iheanacho and Harvey Barnes all struck to give Brendan Rodgers' side a much-needed victory.

The defeat is a blow to Tottenham's top four hopes, and came as a shock to several Spurs supporters.

After the match, Son insisted his side started well, but claimed the result showed the quality of the Premier League as a division.
