Tottenham beat LASK 3-0 on Thursday night to get their Europa League campaign off to a winning start, with Lucas Moura and Son Heung-min both on the scoresheet.

Moura dispatched the opening goal of the game after receiving the ball in the box from debutant Carlos Vinicius before Gareth Bale's squared pass was diverted into his own net by LASK defender Andres Andrade.

Son added Spurs' third towards the end of the game after being introduced from the bench.

Here are your Tottenham player ratings.


1. Goalkeeper & Defenders

Joe Hart (GK) - 7/10 - Called into action to make a diving save to his right at the end of the first half to deny a curling effort. Overall, a quiet night for the goalkeeper.

Matt Doherty (RB) - 7/10 - The Irishman linked up well with Bale on the right side, with the pair providing constant overlapping runs which the LASK defence struggled to track.

Davinson Sanchez (CB) - 7/10 - The Colombian needed a quiet night after his own goal against West Ham and got it. Relatively untroubled.

Ben Davies (CB) - 7/10 - A comfortable night for the Welshman, who was given a central role away from his usual left-back position. Also captained the side.

Sergio Reguilon (LB) - 8/10 - Made an excellent driving run for Spurs' second goal. The Spaniard's brilliant crossing ability was on show yet again in another fine display.


2. Midfielders

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (CM) - 9/10 - A brilliant performance and he had the battle scars to prove it. The Dane continued his impressive form and provided solid cover for the Spurs defence.

Harry Winks (CM) - 7/10 - Gave away needless fouls throughout the game, some which led to free kicks near the touchline. Anyone who watched the Everton, Newcastle and West Ham games knows that's something the team need to cut out.

Gareth Bale (RM) - 7/10 - A first start for Bale since his return to north London saw him withdrawn after an hour. The winger produced the cross which resulted in the own goal.

Erik Lamela (AM) - 6/10 - The Argentine was also substituted on the hour mark. Lamela struggled to make an attacking impact, but his intense pressing helped retain and regain possession on numerous occasions.

Lucas Moura (LM) - 8/10 - Netted the opening goal after linking up nicely with Vinicius. The winger showed excellent composure with his first time touches throughout the game.


3. Forward

Carlos Vinicius (ST) - 7/10 - Had a great opportunity to open the scoring with a free header in the ninth minute, but provided Lucas Moura with an assist for the opener soon after. The striker showed excellent ability to bring others into play throughout the game and assisted Son's goal.


4. Substitutes
