Tottenham 5-1 Asteras Tripolis

Erik Lamela scored a wonderful rabona goal and Harry Kane hit
a superb hat-trick as Tottenham ran out convincing 5-1 winners
over Asteras Tripolis in the Europa League at White Hart Lane on
Thursday.
Spurs had begun Group C with frustrating draws against Partiza
and Besiktas, but Thursday's game at White Hart Lane saw a
much more positive performance that was lit up by an
outrageous goal from Lamela.
Kane opened the scoring with an excellent strike of his own afte
13 minutes, but Lamela stole the show just before the half hour
when he elected for a 'rabona' effort from the edge of the area
that flew past the helpless Tomas Kosicky in the Asteras goal.
The Argentine got his second of the match with a brilliant volley
in the 66th minute before Kane added two more to complete hi
well-deserved hat-trick.
Tottenham's victory was marred somewhat by keeper Hugo
Lloris being sent off late on, and Kane rounded off his eventful
evening by spilling Jeronimo Barrales' shot from the resulting
free-kick into his own net after taking the Frenchman's place in
goal.
