Son Heung-Min scored three of Tottenham's six goals against Millwall on Sunday to help the club advance to the FA Cup semi-final, and the South Korean star takes the Sport cover for the Monday, March 13, 2017 edition of The National.

Son’s hat-trick heroics helped to gloss over an early injury scare to star striker Harry Kane, though Spurs showed no signs of struggle against the League One side.

Greg Lea has the report from White Hart Lane, where Tottenham have been "utterly dominant":

“They are unbeaten this season at the ground they have called home for the last 118 years, with victory secured in 16 of 18 fixtures across all competitions.

“It has been a different story at Wembley, where Tottenham have held their home games in the Uefa Champions League and Europa League due to the construction of a new 61,000-capacity arena on the same site as White Hart Lane. Pochettino’s charges won only one of four encounters at their adopted home this term, which contributed to their early exits from both continental tournaments.

“April’s semi-final will provide Tottenham with an excellent opportunity to improve upon that record ahead of their probable move to Wembley for the entirety of next season as the development project gathers pace.”

In Premier League action on Sunday, Liverpool managed a 2-1 victory at Anfield. Richard Jolly has the report.
