Kane starts and scores double in 25 minutes

Harry Kane is back at Tottenham. After talk of him leaving for Man City all summer, the striker confirmed on Wednesday that he was staying and he celebrated that with a brace.

The striker had a brilliant opportunity inside the opening 20 seconds against Pacos de Ferreira, but he hit the ball wide of the goal. He did not give up though and got on the scoresheet after just nine minutes.

He did so like a typical number 9: controlling in the box and scoring. Bryan Gil got the ball on the left hand side, the former Sevilla man raised his head and put a cross into the middle of the penalty area.

Kane was there to control the ball despite there being lots of pace on the cross and he hit home with his right foot to make it 1-0. He latter added a second 11 minutes before the break.
