Son Heung-min's goal against Burnley won the Premier League 'Goal of the Month' award for the month of December. Son Heung-min ran past almost 7 Burnley players to score the second goal for Tottenham in the clash. The 27-year-old received the ball some 30 yards from his own goal. He pierced through the whole of Burnley's defence to beat Pope. It was a treat for the eyes as the goal was clearly one of the best of the decade.
