Roberto Soldado scored his third penalty of the season as Tottenham Hospur beat Hull City 1-0 at White Hart Lane on Sunday, sending his side to fourth in the Premier League table.

According to Sport24, without the world-record Real Madrid singing Spurs are in need of a player to produce something out of nothing.

However, in Soldado they have a lethal striker from the penalty spot, the report said.

This victory maintained Spurs' fight for a Champions League berth even if the latest win was less than convincing, the report added.

Hull can take credit from this performance, but the decision by referee Michael Oliver to award a penalty against them is one they won't forget quickly, according to the report.
