Heung-Min Son and Gareth Bale completed a remarkable 2-1 comeback win for Tottenham against Southampton in Ryan Mason’s first game as interim boss, boosting their top-four hopes after Spurs supporters had earlier staged a protest against club chairman Daniel Levy.
A turbulent week for the club, which has already seen them sign up to and then exit the Super League amid fan outrage, and surprisingly sack head coach Jose Mourinho, will take another twist on Sunday in their Carabao Cup final against Manchester City, but against Southampton, the drama fell in their favour, with a late VAR call allowing Son to strike from the spot.
The visitors had bounced back from their FA Cup semi-final disappointment impressively to lead through Danny Ings’ header on 30 minutes but Spurs, who had been below their best in the first half, improved after the break and replied with Bale’s bending effort on the hour.
on thought he had completed the comeback when he swept home on 74 minutes but referee David Coote ruled it out after a VAR check, with Lucas Moura offside, however, the officials at Stockley Park judged in Spurs’ favour when Moussa Djenepo caught Sergio Reguilon just inside the box, allowing the South Korea forward to eventually find the net from 12 yards.
The winning start for 29-year-old Mason – the youngest manager in Premier League history – lifts Tottenham up to sixth, two points off the top four having played a game more than the teams around them, and they will head into their cup final on a positive note.

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new podcast from Spurs95:01. Today it is Spurs 2-1 Southampton l Tottenham vs Southampton Reaction l Mason Starts with a Win!
Listen to our podcast of Tottenham vs Southampton match reaction as Spurs beat their rivals 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This was the first game after Mourinho got sacked and the first in-charge for Ryan Mason, the 29-year-old interim manager for Tottenham Hotspur.
In terms of the team, Mason recalled Bale with the rest of the team the same as who played the last game at Everton.
Southampton, smarting from their FA cup semi-final defeat were the better side and Lloris made two amazing saves in the first few minutes to deny Southampton a goal from a corner. It wasn’t to last as Danny Ings beat Aurier to another corner and angled a superb header past Lloris to put Southampton 1-up.
Spurs were poor in the 1st half and didn’t have a single shot on target.
Things improved in the second half and a delightful goal by Bale brought Tottenham level again at 1-1. We thought we had taken the lead when Son scored from a Reguillon pass, but it was disallowed for offside against Moura who was blocking the view of the Southampton goalie.
But Djenepo fouled Reguillon on the edge of the box and after a VAR review a penalty was awarded – Son stepped up and scored beautifully!!
So, the Ryan Mason era started with a much-needed win, and Top 4 is still on for Spurs…now on to the Carabao Cup final with the small matter of Man City waiting!
Mike Leigh is joined by ex Spur John Pratt as well as Simon Lipson and Emanuel Mond to preview the Wembley Cup Final and look back at a tumultuous week for the club and us fans.
