Tottenham Hotspur has booked a simple victory in the Premier League on Sunday evening. In-house manager Ryan Mason’s team had no child to the already relegated Sheffield United, which was beaten 4-0. The absolute man of the match was Gareth Bale, who was responsible for the big victory with three hits. Fifteen minutes before time, Bale got a public change in favor of Steven Bergwijn, who crowned his substitute with an assist on Heung-Min Son.
From the first whistle, Tottenham was emphatically looking for the opening goal. The first serious chance of the game was scored by Son, who made room for the shot but hit goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale with his attempt. A minute later, Harry Kane also came close to scoring; however, his bet was taken off the line by Chris Basham. Ten minutes before the half-time signal, the score was still opened.
Serge Aurier delivered a viewed deep pass to Bale, who tapped in with the outside left just before Ramsdale wanted to pick up the ball: 1-0. Sheffield, which hardly appeared in the game picture in the first act, seemed to be already 2-0 behind six minutes after the tea. Son scored on a pass from Toby Alderweireld, but did so from an offside position: goal rejected. After an hour of play, the score was still doubled. Son was at the basis of a lightning-fast counter and passed the ball in the course to Bale, who approached the sixteen with giant steps and scored with a devastating punch: 2-0.
Bale completed his ‘false’ hat-trick in the 69th minute. The Real Madrid mercenary was played on the edge of the sixteen-meter area by Aurier, after which he made the 3-0 with a watched slide in the bottom right corner. This did not empty the poison cup for the visitors. Bergwijn was on the field for two minutes when he delivered the ball at the corner of the box to Son, who was given room to lash out and found the top corner in a nice way: 4-0. It was the first time since the 1975/76 season that Sheffield had been defeated twice in a season.
