Harry Kane and Son Heung-min wrote their names into the Premier League record books on Sunday after combining yet again as Tottenham Hotspur beat Crystal Palace.
When the South Korean crossed for Kane to score his second goal of the match, and Spurs' fourth in the 4-1 victory, it meant the pair had assisted one another for a 14th goal this season.
