After Alli found Trippier in space, he whipped in an outstanding cross which Kane converted from inside the six-yard box. It should have been three when Son missed the target after Eriksen's free-kick had given him an excellent chance, but Spurs were not to be denied.Kane's cross was dealt with awfully by Kaboul, allowing Alli to produce a composed finish into the far corner.Another poor Watford clearance, this time from Sebastian Prodl, allowed Spurs to strike again after the restart.  The defender's miscue gave Kane the chance to cross and Alli took one touch before converting from close-range for his fifth goal in three league outings.A sharp save from Gomes kept out Kane's free-kick as he searched for a hat-trick, with Watford struggling to make an impact at the other end. Pochettino brought off Alli, Rose and Kane with the match against Chelsea in mind, Spurs coasting to victory with Lloris untroubled until Watford's stoppage-time consolation when Kaboul converted Adlene Guedioura's free-kick at the second attempt.</blockquote>
