Tottenham ace Son on his late goals: I play to the final whistle!

Tottenham captain Heung-min Son has laughed off his habit of hitting late winners.

Son struck late for Saturday's 2-1 win against Luton. His last three Spurs goals have been in 90th, 88th, 86th minutes.

“There's no secret [to my late goals]," Son said.

"I want to play until the last whistle and I still believe that the chances will be there, even in the 95th minute, until the last whistle.

"When the chances come, everybody is tired, the way we played, I think we put a lot of intensity. Especially second half, everybody gets tired and space will be even more. Then you create more chances. That's not a secret.

"We put in a lot of effort for this kind of situation. We work hard for these kind of situation. I just want every single time to be ready for every chance that I get."
