It was 15 December 2011 but Harry Kane says he “remembers it like it was yesterday”. There were 90 minutes on the clock, Tottenham were 3-0 up at Shamrock Rovers in the Europa League and there was still time for one more, still time for something that would go down as a reference point.

“Danny Rose crossed it, Andros [Townsend] headed it back across and I just kind of swivelled and hit it through the goalkeeper’s legs,” Kane says.
