Davinson Sanchez-6.5

The young Colombian wasn’t even in the squad when it was first announced. He ended up playing a key role for Pochettino in helping Spurs see out the victory.

Sanchez came in and did what he normally does. He stayed within himself and kept his game simple. That was enough to give Tottenham’s defense the confidence they needed to hold up in the final minutes after conceding four goals.

Dele Alli-6

Dele came on in relief of Erik Lamela and helped give Tottenham’s midfield some extra energy. He didn’t figure in the scoring, but his runs did help Spurs keep the ball away from Leicester in the last minutes.

Heung-Min Son-Inc

The talented Korean came on at the end of the match but really didn’t make an impact. He might be a bit disappointed at his playing time down the stretch, but he’s still a key part of Tottenham’s squad.
