Tottenham ace Heung-min Son says his goal in victory over Burnley was 'the goal of my life'.

Collecting the ball on the edge of his area when Spurs were already 2-0 up, the South Korean used his blistering pace to drive forward with the visiting players struggling to get back.

Those Clarets shirts that were in front of Son were too afraid of diving in and letting him skip through, yet he did that anyway by gliding past Matthew Lowton and Erik Pieters.

That presented him with only Burnley keeper Nick Pope to beat and, perhaps most impressively, he maintained his composure to slot in.

"I think it is the best goal in my life," Son, 27, said.

"I don't know what happened until the end! When I got the ball l tried to pass to Dele Alli and waited for his movement.

"But I couldn't find him so I just went and went. I'm happy to score this goal."
