Tottenham vs PSV, Champions League: Harry Kane's late heroics secure comeback win

Who have the English clubs drawn in the Champions League?

Harry Kane was the familiar hero as his two late goals earned Tottenham a 2-1 win over PSV and kept their Champions League hopes alive.

Spurs’ faltering Group B campaign looked like hitting a new low after Luuk de Jong put the Dutch side ahead after only a minute at Wembley, which left Mauricio Pochettino‘s men on the brink of being knocked out.

But Kane stood up when it mattered to rescue his side, equalising in the 78th minute and then being the beneficiary of an extremely kind deflection 11 minutes later to complete the turnaround.

The win, Spurs’ first of the group stage, leaves them in third place, three points behind Inter Milan, who visit Wembley in three weeks.

They will need to win that game and will have to be more clinical than they were against PSV, who should have been put to bed long before Kane’s late heroics.

Tottenham 0 - 0 PSV

Tottenham need to win tonight to keep their hopes of a last 16 place alive. Anything less will effectively see them out of the Champions League. With that in mind Spurs get the match underway and boot it forward looking for an oncoming Dele Alli.

It's been a good response from Tottenham since going behind. Their intensity is up and they're creating chances all that's missing is an end product.
