Bournemouth collapse to shockingly heavy defeat at in-form Tottenham

This is a modal window.

Tottenham maintained their stunning form cruising past Bournemouth to close the lead at the top to four points.

It was an afternoon to forget for Eddie Howe and Bournemouth, who suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat to Spurs. Admittedly, it was always going to be a tough ask to achieve a good result against such a dominant side season such as Mauricio Pochettino's, but such a disappointing performance doesn't bode well for the rest of the season. They have a comfortable gap above the relegation zone but more points are still needed to ensure survival.
