Brazilian forward Richarlison was the hero of the match, scoring two goals, including one of them after a brilliant assist from Mohamed Kudus.
The first goal for Tottenham came in the tenth minute when Richarlison struck the ball into the bottom corner of the net. After this, Burnley tried to take the initiative, but Tottenham again went ahead when Kudus passed the ball to Richarlison, who attempted a spectacular shot.
Brennan Johnson finished the scoring, netting the third goal in the second half. Although Burnley tried to create a threat, they were unable to convert their chances.
This match also marked the introduction of new rules, including one where Burnley goalkeeper Martin Dubravka became the first player to be penalized for a delay in taking a free kick, as he held the ball for more than six seconds.
The next match for Tottenham will be on September 23 against Manchester City away.
