Manchester City's bid to chop Arsenal's Premier League lead to two points was scuppered as Harry Kane's record-breaking goal earned Tottenham Hotspur a 1-0 ...
-- a reference to the fact he joined the club as an 11-year-old. "It's quite surreal, a magical feeling to do it in front of the home fans and to win the game, I wanted to do it at this special place and in front of these amazing fans." Kane's moment arrived when City made a mess of trying to play out from the back and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg stole the ball off Rico Lewis on the edge of the area before holding off a challenge and flicking the ball to Kane.
Harry Kane is now Tottenham's top scorer, claiming a record that stood for over 50 years. Here's how he did it, and a selection of his best strikes.
Three years after scoring his 100th goal for Spurs, Kane reached the 200 mark with a goal against Ludogorets in the Europa League in November 2020. He has totalled 58 assists for Spurs since 2011-12, with 44 of those coming in the Premier League. Indeed, his longest ever goal for Tottenham was put away from 31 metres, though it took a heavily deflected free kick against Stoke City in February 2017 to do so -- the third goal of a hat trick in a 4-0 victory for Spurs. [Arsenal](/soccer/team?id=359) during his career and the best arguably came during the Premier League derby at White Hart Lane in March 2016. While it's certainly debatable whether or not he actually meant to whack his lofted shot straight over [Jordan Pickford](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/159443/Jordan-Pickford) from way out on the right flank, it can't be denied that the goal signalled an incredibly important career milestone for the Spurs striker. Dortmund were also on the receiving end of what is probably Kane's finest Champions League effort in the 2017-18 group stage -- a powerful solo attack that began wide on the touchline and ended in a fierce shot being rocketed into the top corner with what is supposedly his weaker left foot to wrap up a 3-1 victory. After scoring five goals in League One while on loan at Leyton Orient the season previous, the teenager finally got off the mark for Spurs in 2011-12 when he popped up in injury time to add the fourth goal in a routine 4-0 win and thus open his account for the club. [the 1966 World Cup winner with England who died in 2021 at the age of 81](/soccer/england-eng/story/4478404/former-englandchelsea-and-tottenham-striker-jimmy-greaves-dies-aged-81) -- remains the all-time top goal scorer in the history of the English top flight with a total of 357 goals in 516 games for Spurs, [Chelsea](/soccer/team?id=363) and West Ham combined. That came in 2017-18 when Kane notched 41 goals in 48 games for Spurs in the most prolific campaign of his club career to date. Kane has certainly scored some delectable goals for Tottenham since 2011 but the best from a purely aesthetic standpoint might be this exquisite first-time, 20-yard drive against Crystal Palace in March 2021. For Kane that came at the age of 18 during a Europa League group-stage clash against Shamrock Rovers in mid-December 2011. However, after scoring in the 1-0 win over Fulham in the Premier League on Jan.

“Outstanding and composed,” Forest manager Steve Cooper said of the three-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid, who moved from Paris Saint-Germain this week. To do it in front of the home fans is a moment I’ll never forget. “There’s still a lot of football to be played,” City defender Kyle Walker said. Kane swept home the winner in the 15th minute after Pierre-Emile Højbjerg intercepted a pass out from the back by City midfielder Rodri and set up the striker to score his 200th Premier League goal. “There’s been so much talk about it over the last couple of weeks. In the end, Arsenal wasn’t punished for losing 1-0 at Everton — and maybe that’s no surprise.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remains a house of horrors for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City following Spurs 1-0 win on Sunday,
(AE) Per the report both Werner and De Ligt are up for the move, with the Dutch center back set to be the new center-piece of Thomas Tuchel’s defense, while Werner is keen for a fresh start in Italy as his goalscoring woes in the Premier League continue. (JPW) What a move this would be for a Chelsea team already loaded with attackers, just the latest sign that no one besides (probably) Kai Havertz and Mason Mount are safe in their status with Thomas Tuchel’s Blues. This time around, Lukaku scored 15 goals in 44 appearances (all competitions – 8 in 26 in the Premier League), bringing his Chelsea career total to 15 goals. This is a massive upgrade for Chelsea and proves the ambition of their new owners, as Sterilng will excel in the 3-4-2-1 formation in one of the underneath roles, or even up top as the central striker. The American goalkeeper has a very bright future and this is a good move for him to enter the European market and have a huge club like Chelsea handling his development. His quality is clear for all to see and he would slot in well to the 3-4-2-1 system and is very comfortable on the ball and coming out of the back to start attacks. The focus at Chelsea will likely now be on selling players and they will have to move on a lot of fringe players to offset this huge spending spree. It is reported (below) that Chelsea will pay the Norwegian side $12.7 million for Fofana. As for De Jong, well, Chelsea’s priority is to sign a center back but with Jorginho and N’Golo Kante coming towards the twilight of their careers, De Jong is a very similar player and would slot in very nicely to safeguard the future of Chelsea’s midfield. A season ago, Manchester City conceded just 26 goals in 38 games (0.68 per game).

Harry Kane scored his 267th goal for Spurs, breaking Jimmy Greaves' record, as the home side deservedly beat an off-kilter City.
Ake runs across to slide tackle Royal on the edge of the area, with the ball ricocheting behind for a goalkick. 63 min “From a tactical perspective,” says Peter Oh, “is it fair to say that Harry Kane has ripped up City’s 4-3-3/3-3-4/3-5-2 playbook with his ruthless 2-6-7? He smashes a shot that hits Dier’s knee and flies over the bar. He slides an inviting first-time ball that just evades both the diving Ederson and the sliding Kane in the six-yard box. 68 min City are looking more dangerous now, and more desperate (in a good way). Ederson comes out to save Kane’s shot brilliantly with his outstretched left leg, and the ball ricochets off Kane before going wide of the near post. Grealish has looked most likely to create something for City in the second half. 76 min Walker’s deflected long-range shot is easily saved by Lloris, City’s first shot on target in the second half. To score and win that game was just the start. They could still have drawn or even won the game, because they are that good, but that was a slightly alarming performance. There’s been so much talk about it in the last two weeks and I wanted to get it done as soon as possible. I was desperate to do it with a win as well, and in front of the home fans.

The England captain's brilliance kept Tottenham in the Champions League during the years of austerity on the pitch.
There is a favourable take that suggests Kane could score Haaland goals for City; but that Haaland still lacks the all-round gears of Kane’s game. Here is a man who has performed to a relentlessly high level while playing for Spurs and England, two teams with almost no modern history of winning pots. The development into a creative, deeper forward has in part been a response to his own loss of high-throttle speed. For City this was perhaps a case of here’s what you could have had. Kane has three footballing superpowers: his finishing, his passing and above all his supreme footballing intelligence, a quality English players have so often been accused of lacking, or failing to develop. The winner of the What a wonderful player he has been, a model of constant self-improvement from his early days as a mildly fleshy creative forward. It felt entirely fitting that he should make the difference with the only goal of an engaging game, albeit a hugely disappointing one for City. It should perhaps be added that Greaves ended on 357 in the top tier in total, and that Kane is 27th overall on the roster of the English top flight, a far more storied list than the quarter-century Alan Shearer pursuit so beloved of the broadcasters. But he was sold short by Rodri for the game’s only goal, given a scuffed pass from a tough angle with no time to turn. He was asked in this formation to play two roles, to defend as left-back (he is a right-back) and to move into midfield as required. And also, in an agreeable piece of irony – football really does love this stuff – Arsenal’s day, although we can perhaps draw a veil over that for now.

Despite plenty of City possession, Tottenham held firm to move a point off the top four and do rivals Arsenal a big favor in the title race. Tottenham assistant coach Cristian Stellini, filling in for Conte, was attempting to match the animated presence of his fellow Italian on the touchline but saw his team enjoy a slice of luck before the break. City was dominating possession but soon felt the familiar feeling of trailing to Tottenham — and it proved a record-breaking goal.

It turns into a game of cat and mouse, looking forward but thinking about what is behind you too. It is not just down to them finding Haaland, though. The crowd are not going to react like your own fans do when their side try to slow things down, which Spurs did very cleverly on Sunday after they went ahead. In past seasons, before you needed to be absolutely flawless to win the league, I would look at how title races were decided and say that part of what champions are made of is being a side who can find a way to win even when they are not playing well. [Kane passes Greaves as Spurs' all-time top scorer](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64532175) [What did you make of Manchester City's display? Most of City's squad are not playing at their best and as a team they definitely look more human but, unlike Jurgen Klopp's side, they are still finding a way to be competitive at the top of the table. I'd argue City have still managed to do that to a certain extent this season, which is why they are just about afloat and still have a chance to defend their title, even if that looks like a difficult task from here. City have not played as well this season as they have done in previous campaigns under Guardiola, but you have to remember they had reached a level of near perfection for most of that time. You want to over-commit because you are desperate for the equaliser, but the Tottenham front three is a constant danger, so that has to be at the back of your mind. Spurs' goal on Sunday came in a different way, which was similar to their first goal at Etihad Stadium last month - it was their press that put City in trouble when they tried to play out from the back, and Harry Kane pounced. When you break down why they have consistently struggled there, you have to start with their style of play - the way City usually play, high up the pitch, suits Spurs because it allows them to sit deep and break forward, and in players like Harry Kane and Son Heung-min they have exactly the right weapons to make those moments count. The biggest reason City lost was their lack of creativity, and when your number nine - especially someone as deadly as Erling Haaland - does not have a shot at goal in the entire game, then of course you have to question what went wrong.
