Salomon Rondon (Gueye 81’) – N/R. A late run out for Rondon. AFP

TOTTENHAM RATINGS: Hugo Lloris – 6. The Frenchman had a quiet game, with only Gray’s and Onana’s chances in the box keeping him on his toes during the first half. Reuters

Cristian Romero – 8. Put in a superb tackle on Onana in the box in the first half, and was consistently solid and dominant in defence. He was also constantly picking out passes to trigger attacks. Reuters

Eric Dier –7. Put his midweek error to the back of his mind and looked back to his best at the backline. He was rarely troubled. EPA

Ben Davies – 7. Prevented the visitors from making any headway on his flank, and kept the ball moving forward. AFP

Matt Doherty – 8. In for the suspended Emerson Royal, Doherty found an increasing amount of joy on the wing as the game went on, creating the penalty when his effort on goal was mishandled by Pickford, seeing Kane fouled. Getty

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg – 9. Hojbjerg’s freedom to move forward in the second half helped Spurs move through the gears, and he was rewarded with a goal when he hooked Bentacur’s cross from under his feet to fire past Pickford. Getty

Rodrigo Bentancur – 8. Initially caught by surprise by the pace and strength of Gray in the first half, he grew into the game and was superb despite picking up a yellow card. Given much more freedom to attack following Bissouma’s introduction, moving the ball forward, testing the wings and setting up Hojbjerg’s goal. EPA

Ivan Perisic – 7. Returned to the starting line-up and attempted a number of overlapping runs on the wing, but his end product let him down. He saw a late move into the box cut out by Tarkowski. EPA

Richarlison – 6. The former Everton player will be disappointed to have seen his evening come to an early end through injury. Before that, he had a variety of opportunities to score in the first half, including a free header which went over, a strike which bobbled wide of the post and a volleyed chance before half-time. PA

Son Heung-Min – 6. Fresh off his double against Frankfurt in the Champions League, Son was required to block Coleman’s strike, whilst he could only fire Kane’s parried effort over the bar in the second half. AFP

Harry Kane – 8. The forward caused problems for the Everton defence and was rewarded with another penalty on his 400th appearance. Before that, Kane had a superb opportunity in the second half when he connected with a cross into the box, which he volleyed at Richarlison. On his first effort at goal, Kane’s shot from the outside of the box flew just over the bar. PA

SUBS: Yves Bissouma (Richarlison 52’) – 8. Game changer. Brought on for the injured Richarlison, Bissouma’s positioning allowed Bentancur and Hojbjerg a little more freedom to move forward, sparking Spurs into attack. EPA

Davinson Sanchez (Romero 87’) – N/R. Straight into action with a defensive header, Sanchez was brought onto help see out the game. EPA

Oliver Skipp (Bentancur 90+2) – N/R. A late change for Antonio Conte’s side. EPA

Lucas Moura (Kane 90+2)– N/R. Another run-out for Moura on his return from injury as Kane received a standing ovation from the home crowd. PA

Djed Spence (Doherty 90+2’) – N/R. The former Nottingham Forest loanee was given his home debut in stoppage time. EPA

EVERTON RATINGS: Jordan Pickford – 6. Rarely troubled in the first half but he had to be on his game in the second, first with Kane’s superb effort and Son’s follow up, and then to gather a ball from a Doherty. Unfortunately, he fouled Kane in the box and was unable to stop the resulting penalty, despite going the right way. AFP

Seamus Coleman – 6. The Everton captain tried his luck when the ball rolled out to him on the edge of the box, with Son putting in a crucial deflection to deny him. Had a tough night against Son and Perisic. PA

James Tarkowski – 8. Standout display by the defender. From the off, Tarkowski was put to work to monitor Kane and cut out crosses, and he started the second half in the same manner, cutting out Son’s darting run. EPA

Conor Coady – 7. Solid in defence and managed Spurs’ attacking men well, along with providing Everton with a number of incisive forward passes to try and kickstart the game. AFP

Vitalii Mykolenko – 7. The Ukrainian reunited with his former teammate Richarlison with a crunching tackle in the first minute, and from there read the Brazilian well before his exit. He also handled Doherty’s moves as the game progressed. Booked. Reuters

Dwight McNeil – 6. Replacing the suspended Anthony Gordon, he was forced into more defensive duties on the wing. A threat from set pieces. Booked. Reuters

Alex Iwobi – 6. A quieter game for one of Everton’s usual standout men, with Everton relying on counter attacks, and largely on the back foot in the second half. AFP

Idrissa Gueye – 7. Protected the defence well while distributing the ball and kickstarting the occasional attack. Booked. Reuters

Amadou Onana – 7. Stopped a fast Spurs break with a well-timed tackle on Bentancur. At the other end of the pitch, he sprinted onto a loose ball in a good opportunity for his side, but he couldn’t keep his effort on target. AFP

Demarai Gray – 6. Got the better of Bentancur before racing into the box, where he failed to keep his composure, and fired his shot fire over in Everton’s first chance of the game. EPA

Neal Maupay – 5. A fruitless display, with Maupay unable to get onto the ball or produce anything, with Everton’s big opportunities coming from individual breaks. Booked. Getty

SUBS: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Maupay 66’) – 5. On his return from injury, Calvert-Lewin was unable to find the target in the closing stages. Reuters

James Garner (Coleman 67’) – 5. The former Manchester United man put in a dangerous cross into the box, which Lloris read well in a rare attacking move after Kane’s opener.
