Tottenham produced a five-star showing on Monday Night Football as Harry Kane scored twice in a 5-0 thrashing of relegation-threatened Everton.
In a thoroughly one-sided contest, Tottenham were 3-0 ahead by half-time after Michael Keane's own goal (14) was added to by Heung-Min Son three minutes later, the South Korean's shot flashing underneath Jordan Pickford's body.
Things got even worse for the visitors before half-time as Kane ran onto Matt Doherty's pass to reverse his shot into the net, with the goal upheld upon VAR review despite a marginal offside call (37).
Frank Lampard sought to address matters by replacing Keane at the interval but his side were further behind 41 seconds after the restart as half-time substitute Sergio Reguilon swept home from Dejan Kulusevski's cross at the far post.
Tottenham were not done there, as Doherty was given too much time to pick out Kane at the far post for a superb volley back across Pickford's goal into the far corner with 35 minutes still to play. It was the striker's 176th Premier League goal, surpassing Thierry Henry in the records.
The result means Spurs remain in seventh on 45 points but with two games still in hand over West Ham and Manchester United above them and three points off Arsenal in fourth place, who have played a game fewer.
