Tottenham ended their three-game losing streak on Saturday by beating Brighton 2-1 away in the Premier League.

Spurs managed to ease the pressure surrounding the club after consecutive losses at the hands of Watford, Liverpool and Inter Milan.

Kane will be delighted on an individual note after Brighton, as he drew level with Jermain Defoe as the club’s fifth highest goalscorer of all-time.

There have been a lot of question marks surrounding the form of the England centre-forward, but he now has three goals in seven games this season.
