    That sub ends the dream of Spurs having players with squad numbers 1-11 on the pitch.

    No Gareth Bale hat-trick as he's replaced by Erik Lamela. Moussa Sissoko is on for Harry Winks.

    Special K: Harry Kane’s all round ability and footballing intelligence is the reason why he has to be considered the best centre forward in the world.

    Another Luka Milivojevic corner but Hugo Lloris punches away. Spurs look so comfortable and yet you suspect they'll get edgy if Palace score.

    Palace make their second sub as Jeffrey Schlupp replaces Andros Townsend.

    Corner comes to nothing.

    Corner to Palace as Matt Doherty heads behind before Wilfried Zaha can get the ball. Zaha has only touched the ball four times.

    Matty AFC: If Kane played for a top tier team (City, Madrid, Bayern etc.) he'd be spoken about in the same breath as Lewandowski & co. Absolutely world class.

    Sunny Rizvi: Absolutely unbelievable! Wow. What a strike by Harry Kane. Every bit of a world class player on show there in the build up and the finish.

    Lee: That's more like it. Funny how when we actually attack on the front foot we score two quick goals. Maybe Mourinho will stop with the sitting back on single goal leads from now on?

    Gareth Bale whips in a corner which Harry Kane meets at the back post but his header is wide.

    Spurs 3-1 Crystal Palace

    Harry Kane has been directly involved in 39 goals in 36 games in all competitions this season (23 goals and 16 assists); the most of any player for a Premier League club.

  14. Postpublished at 20:30 Greenwich Mean Time 7 March 2021

    Spurs 3-1 Crystal Palace

    Tottenham’s Harry Kane has assisted 13 Premier League goals this season, more than any other player. Only Christian Eriksen (15 in 2016-17) and Darren Anderton (14 in 1994-95) have ever provided more in a season in the competition for Spurs.

    Harry Kane - two assists, one goal, one near goalline clearance.

    Palace whip a free-kick into the box which Christian Benteke heads towards goal. I think Hugo Lloris has it covered but before it reaches him Kane hacks it clear.

    Victor Alex: Vintage spurs... this is my spurs. Now Dan the hold on to this lead? That’s the question

    Steve Curtis: Harry Kane there, being all “alll they keep talking about is my assists. Here have this nonchalant WONDERGOAL.”

    Yes, a win here would take Spurs up into sixth and drop Liverpool to eighth.

    Spurs are only two points off the top four as things stand.

    If I'd been offered back in December (when spurs played Liverpool for who would go top) that with ten games to go, Spurs would be level on points with Liverpool, have a game in hand and better goal difference, I reckon I would have taken it... I didn’t think that it was going to be for 7th and 8th though

    The introduction of Wilfried Zaha hasn't had the impact Roy Hodgson would have hoped...
