Tottenham Hotspur made it two wins from two as they came from 0-2 down at half-time to win by a 4-2 margin in Jose Mourinho's first home game of his North London career earlier this week. Goals from Harry Kane (2), Serge Aurier, and Dele Alli ensured that Jose Mourinho won both his opening games in charge of Tottenham Hotspur since the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino. However, the build-up towards Spurs' equaliser scored by Harry Kane, which involved the quick thinking of a Tottenham ball boy, made headlines due to Mourinho's reaction.

Post Kane’s strike, Jose Mourinho made his way to Callum Hynes to shake his hand and give the young lad a hug.
