Premier League: Son secures comeback win for Tottenham against Luton
Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min struck late on to secure a 2-1 Premier League victory over Luton Town to bolster his side’s top-four ambitions on Saturday.
Son started and finished a flowing Tottenham move in the 86th minute to leave relegation battler Luton with nothing to show from a spirited display in north London.
Tahith Chong gave Luton a surprise early lead with Son being denied by the woodwork soon afterwards. Tottenham equalised in the 51st minute when Issa Kabore scored an own goal and the hosts’ pressure was eventually rewarded with Son’s clincher.
Tottenham moved into fourth place with 56 points, ahead of Aston Villa on goals scored although Villa was in action later at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Luton slipped back below Nottingham Forest into the relegation zone.
Coleman own goal condemns Everton to defeat at Bournemouth
A stoppage-time own goal by Everton defender Seamus Coleman condemned his side to a 2-1 Premier League loss at Bournemouth on Saturday, deepening the woes of the relegation-threatened Toffees.
Having had a 10-point deduction for financial irregularities cut to six, Everton arrived on the south coast under the cloud of another charge and it struggled to create goal-scoring opportunities in a scoreless first half.
Bournemouth took the lead through striker Dominic Solanke in the 64th minute, but an 87th-minute goal by Everton substitute Beto after a terrible goalkeeping error by Neto looked to have given it a share of the spoils.

Four minute later, however, Everton was plunged into crisis again as Coleman was fooled by a bouncing ball into the box, chesting it into his own net to condemn it to its third defeat in a row.
Bournemouth is 13th in the table on 38 points. Everton is 16th on 25 points, three above the drop zone.
