Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane scored a brilliant goal in Mauricio Pochettino’s side’s first pre-season friendly.

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli has told the Daily Mail that he has discussed scoring from the half-way line with Harry Kane before.

Kane took aim to score what is arguably the best goal of his career against Juventus at the weekend, as he helped Tottenham win 3-2.

Kane lobbed the ball into the back of the Juve net from the halfway line, and Alli was wondering how the Spurs striker managed to pull off the feat after the game.

“It was a special goal and I said to him after the game when did he see the keeper off the line because there’s been games where we talk about it and sometimes it’s not on to try, but he went for it and it went in, so it was a great strike.” Alli said.

Kane’s goal has raised expectations around Tottenham as to what he could do this season.

Kane endured a difficult campaign last term, but he looks to be in great shape, after having a summer off.

Tottenham have played just one pre-season game so far, but will be stepping up their preparations for the new campaign in the coming days.

Tottenham take on Manchester United on Thursday, when Alli and Kane are both likely to feature.
