Mike Dean points to the spot
First he pointed to the spot for Arsenal in the 10th minute, with the resultant spot-kick finished by Pierre Emmerick-Aubameyang.Dean then gave his second penalty of the afternoon, this time for Spurs after Heung-min Son went down under a challenge from Rob Holding. Harry Kane duly converted.It now means Dean has dished out a staggering 145 penalties in Premier League history.Only Liverpool have had more with 148, meaning he has accounted for 6.2 per cent of spot-kicks in the league since its inception in 1992.It is a truly remarkable statistic for the Wirral-born official, who has been a Premier League referee since 2000.Dean has pointed to the spot 145 times in the Premier League2
