November 7, 2019 - Spurs secured their place in the Champions League last 16 with a 4-2 win over Red Star Belgrade, thanks in part to a brace from Son Heung-min.

Spurs' South Korean forward did not celebrate his first goal, instead clasping his hands and bowing his head.

Christian Eriksen added a fourth late on, while Giovani Lo Celso opened the scoring with a finish from a goalmouth scramble.

Red Star had chances of their own, but Spurs goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga made several key saves, including one from Milan Pavkov.

Meanwhile, Juventus sealed their place in the last 16 with an injury-time winner against Lokomotiv Moscow in Group D.

Substitute Douglas Costa struck the decisive blow with a cool finish as the visitors rallied late on.

Paris St-Germain also booked their place in the last 16 with a scrappy victory over Club Bruges in Group A.

Mauro Icardi scored the only goal as the French champions maintained their perfect start to their European campaign.
