What we learned from Tottenham's pre-season friendly victory against Colchester

Nuno Espirito Santo would have been left a very satisfied coach after his Tottenham team beat Colchester 3-0 in a promising pre-season performance.

His tenure began with a 1-1 draw at Leyton Orient at the weekend but his players upped the quality and tempo in their second friendly to clinch the comfortable win.

With a number of first-team big names taking to the field, including Son Heung-min in his first appearance since returning from holiday, Spurs were notably lifted.

It was Son who opened the scoring after just 11 minutes following a lovely, flowing passage of play from the visitors' frontline.
