Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to criticise Harry Kane for going down easily in the dying stages of Tottenham’s 1-1 draw against Wolves yesterday.

The England international hit the deck after challenging for the ball with Romain Saiss in the penalty area during the 89th minute of the draw.

The Wolves centre-back barely touched the Tottenham No.10, and it was definitely a case of the striker trying to win his side a cheap spot-kick.

After an 18-second clip of the incident emerged on Twitter, a number of Arsenal fans have expressed their anger at what Kane did.

Supporters of Tottenham’s north London rivals are furious, and it’s not the first time the 27-year-old has been involved in an incident regarding simulation.

After Arsenal’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham last season, Kane was forced to come out and deny that he dived to win a penalty at the Emirates.

He told Sky Sports: ‘The defender made a tired tackle. On halfway I think I’d get that foul. Ref probably thinks I’m looking for it. It is 50-50, I could get it in some games.’

It’s definitely something that’s a part of Kane’s game, although he tends to avoid criticism from the media for it in contrast to the likes of Mohamed Salah.
