Harry Kane scored twice as Tottenham beat Rangers 2-1 in a pre-season friendly at Ibrox.

Rangers' summer signing Antonio Colak opened the scoring from close range after good wing play by Rabbi Matondo and a flick by James Tavernier.

But Kane curled a shot into the top corner after cutting in from the left to equalise.

And the England captain scored the winner after latching onto Son Heung-min's clever pass.

Summer signings Yves Bissouma, Richarlison, Ivan Perisic, Djed Spence, Clement Lenglet and Fraser Forster all came off the bench for Spurs in Glasgow.

Elsewhere, Wolves beat Besiktas 3-0 in Alicante after Raul Jimenez, Daniel Podence and Pedro Neto all scored in the first half.

Brentford suffered a 4-0 away defeat by Wolfsburg in Germany.

Leicester played two pre-season friendlies with different teams, winning both.

Manager Brendan Rodgers' side won 2-1 at Preston with goals from Jamie Vardy and Harvey Barnes. Meanwhile, assistant boss Chris Davies' team triumphed 3-1 at Derby with Kelechi Iheanacho, Patson Daka and Callum Wright netting.

Brighton won 2-1 at Reading. A Pascal Gross header and a long-range Solly March strike gave the Premier League side a 2-0 lead before Yakou Meite pulled one back with a penalty.

Tomas Soucek gave West Ham the lead at Luton but Sonny Bradley's last-minute goal resulted in a 1-1 draw.

Nottingham Forest lost 1-0 at Union Berlin, and a Chris Martin penalty gave Bristol City a 1-0 win at Bournemouth.

Meanwhile, Watford and Southampton drew 0-0 at Wealdstone.
