As Tottenham Hotspur drew 1-1 against Brentford on Saturday, Harry Kane set a Premier League record no other striker has in Premier League history.
The 29-year’old’s feat was reported by talkSPORT, as he did so in style after a smooth free-kick routine where he walloped the ball into the top corner from well outside the box.
With Tottenham Hotspur most important getting a win under their belt against Brentford, Harry Kane set yet another special record.
Which Premier League record did Harry Kane set as Tottenham beat Brentford?
In a season where Spurs have been rightly slated, especially when it comes to their struggles going forward, Kane has somehow scored 28 goals in the league.
Time and again, the England captain has stepped up for his boyhood club and continues to strengthen his legacy as one of the greatest No.9’s to have ever graced the league.
As Harry Kane starred for Tottenham in their draw against Brentford, he also set the record by becoming the first player to score against 25 different teams in a single Premier League season
For context, even perennial record-breaker Erling Haaland has bagged a strike or more against 23 teams in the league this campaign for Manchester City.
Trophies or a lack thereof should not take away from the brilliance of Harry Kane
Legacy is a different conversation but in terms of the quality that Harry Kane possesses, the record in itself coupled with his strike for Tottenham against Brentford just once again proves that he is a once-in-a-generation goalscorer.
Often, several fans and pundits alike sneer at Kane and take away from how incredible a footballer is due to his failure to have lifted a single trophy with Spurs.
However, the Englishman cannot particularly change Tottenham’s lack of a winning environment and the fact that he has scored the number of goals he has at such a club is remarkable to say the least.
Harry Kane should unequivocally go down as one of England’s greatest ever players, let alone strikers.
