Harry Kane grabbed an important first goal against Brentford to make sure that his side went home with a point on Monday.
It was an entertaining match filled with dramatic moments that reminded fans what they have missed about the Premier league.
An early 2-0 lead netted by Vitaly Janelt and Ivan Toney pushed Tottenham to the cross and threatened to give them their first defeat after the World Cup.
The Tottenham striker had a disappointing final memory of the world tournament recently completed. In the match against France, he blew a lifeline penalty that solidified England’s defeat.
Harry Kane Inspired a Comeback
In his first league match, he was quick to remind everyone why he is considered one of the best strikers.
His top class header at the 65th minute gave his side a glimmer of hope to keep fighting.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s clean finish leveled the score sheet a few minutes later to salvage a point for Tottenham.
“Until the Kane goal there was only one team on the pitch. It was a very good performance and the players are disappointed,” Brentford manager Thomas Frank told Amazon Prime.
Tottenham are currently fourth on the table with 30 points. They will hope to continue to stay at the top in order to qualify for the Champions league next season.
