At half-time at Crystal Palace, Spurs – without a win since the World Cup – were in trouble. Then Kane happened.
His header from Ivan Perisic’s cross early in the second half ended a 10-game run of Spurs conceding the opening goal in every game.
His second, a low drive from Bryan Gil’s pass, put Spurs in control. Then he had a hand in Matt Doherty’s third and set up Son Heung-min for the fourth. It ended 4-0 as Spurs moved to within two points of fourth-placed Manchester United.
