LONDON - Son Heung-min hailed Tottenham Hotspur's fighting spirit as it shrugged off Harry Kane's injury blow to beat Manchester City 1-0 in the first leg of their all-English Champions League quarterfinal on Tuesday.
Son was Spurs' hero as he netted a cool winner late in the second half to give his side a slender advantage to protect in next week's second leg in Manchester.
It was an impressive display of resilience from Mauricio Pochettino's men after star striker Kane limped off with his latest ankle problem early in the second half.
