Spurs to take action after Korean star Son racially abused

Son is the second Spurs player in as many matches to suffer such abuse following Davinson Sanchez after the 2-2 draw with Newcastle United on April 4.

Son scored Spurs's goal but was involved in a controversial incident when he went down clutching his face after contact with Scott McTominay.

That resulted in an Edinson Cavani goal being ruled out and post match criticism of the Korean by United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

"Another matchday and more abhorrent racial abuse suffered by one of our players," said a Spurs statement.

"This has again been reported to the platforms and we shall now undertake a full review alongside the Premier League to determine the most effective action moving forward."

Tottenham said last week they wanted "social media platforms to take action" after the abuse of Colombian international defender Sanchez.
