Kane “proud” of beating Sheringham’s record

An article on talkSPORT has said how Harry Kane admitted he might have been offside for the first of the two goals which made him our top scorer of the Premier League era on Saturday.

Kane netted twice in Spurs’ 4-0 win over Everton at Wembley and the article adds it moved him to 98 Premier League goals and one clear of Teddy Sheringham.

Both of Kane’s strikes came in the second half, with the first coming when he got a toe on Son Heung-min’s cross-cum-shot in the 47th minute.

“When he shot I thought it might be going in but luckily for me it wasn’t,” Kane said on BT Sport. “I might have been offside. Sometimes you get it, sometimes you don’t. Luckily it went my way.”

Kane said he was proud of the record but would not dwell on it for long. He added: “It’s what I always say, it’s something I’m very proud of but it’s on to the next one, we’ve got to keep going,” he said. “These boys are great, they set me up and we’ve got to keep going and winning games. Hopefully I’ll keep scoring.”

The article goes on to say the win keeps us in fifth, level with Liverpool ahead of their match against leaders Manchester City on Sunday, and three points behind Chelsea after the blues 0-0 draw with Leicester.

“Whenever other teams around are dropping points you’ve got to be there and to win,”:Kane said. “It could have been a tough game but from the start we were really on it and deserved the win.”
