Game Summary
Anthony Gordon netted the first goal in the first half, curling a exquisite strike into the opposite side of the net.
Harry Kane followed up with a quickfire two goals before the interval—initially with a low drive from the penalty arc, and later from the 12-yard mark after a confirmed infraction.
The visitors notched two further strikes in the second period—one an own goal by a Latvian replacement, and another a clinical finish from the substitute.
