Tottenham star nominated for European award

Tottenham Hotspur striker and captain for the night Harry Kane has been nominated for a European award after his heroics at Wembley on Tuesday night.

Spurs played PSV in a must win Champions League clash after picking up only one point in their previous three games.

PSV took the lead early on through a corner, with just one minute on the clock.

The Dutch league leaders then defended for their lives for the next 75 minutes, with Spurs racking up 25 shots in this time.

Just when it seemed as if it wouldn’t be Tottenham’s night, Harry Kane stepped up to rescue them from an early Champions League exit.

The forward latched onto a knock down from strike partner Fernando Llorente, lashing it home with his weaker left foot.

Kane then stepped up again in the dying moments, as he saw his header deflect off two PSV defenders before trundling over the line.

Spurs held out to clinch all three points and kept their dreams alive, with wins against Inter and Barca now needed to qualify.

After his performance, Harry Kane has been nominated for Player of the Week in the Champions League, alongside Benzema, Mahrez, and Pavkov.
