Tottenham fans notice what Son Heung-min did after Harry Kane's assist in Burnley win

Tottenham fans have noticed a great moment in their side's win over Burnley on Monday night.

Jose Mourinho's men were made to work for their three points at Turf Moor, Son Heung-min scoring the all-important goal in an ultra-tight game on the 76th minute.

And once again the headline from the goal and indeed the game was Harry Kane and Son's wonderful relationship in that Tottenham front line.

Kane assisted the goal and that makes it seven assists from the striker to Son alone in the Premier League, the England international managing 10 in all across all competitions so far this season.

Jose Mourinho believes new contract on the horizon for Son Heung-min

And it's pretty clear the pair themselves are aware of the trend they are settling following Son's priceless reaction to the goal, which was scored after a flick-on from Kane at the front post.

In the first instance, Son didn't realise his attacking partner had got the decisive touch to direct the ball into his path, and during the celebration, he had to seek confirmation from Kane.

Fans noticed a video of the celebrations of the goal after the game in which Son appeared to say to Kane 'did you assist?'

Kane nodded to confirm his touch, bringing a huge smile out of Son, something Spurs fans love to see.

Speaking about the assist after the game, Kane told Sky Sports: "It was one of them, it was an unusual assist, a flick-on from the back post and Sonny was there.

"When things are going your way, they fall to the right people and Sonny is on form at the moment, so it came to him and he put it away"
