Tottenham overcame going down a goal to demolish Burnley at Turf Moor and maintain their perfect record in the Premier League.
Captain Heung Mi Son Heung-min scored a hat-trick as Spurs thrashed Burnley 5-2 away from home.
The Clarets took an early lead thanks to Lyle Foster's wonderful, fluid goal, but Son's deft finish equalized the score 12 minutes later, and the visitors did not glance back.
The remainder of the half was controlled by them, and Cristian Romero's sweeping goal from the outside of the box sealed the comeback just before halftime.
Nine minutes into the second half, James Maddison added to his stellar start to the season with a beautiful goal, looping past James Trafford after Burnley had given the visitors possession within their own half.
Following a beautiful through pass from Pedro Porro, Son sidefooted past Trafford for his second goal of the contest before completing his hat trick with a low shot.
Burnley got one back in stoppage time thanks to a nice finish from Josh Brownhill, but it was only a little consolation.
Spurs, who were eliminated from the EFL Cup on Tuesday by Fulham, now have 10 points after four matches, while Burnley is still winless for the year.
