Harry Kane produced a masterclass against Crystal Palace and will help Tottenham get top four, say Jamie Redknapp and Graeme Souness
Harry Kane scored twice and set up Heung-Min Son for Tottenham's fourth goal as Antonio Conte's side thrashed Crystal Palace 4-0; Jamie Redknapp: "He was just incredible, not just his goals, his all-round play. It was a masterclass"
Jamie Redknapp lauded Harry Kane's second-half "masterclass" and Graeme Souness tipped him to fire Tottenham to a top-four finish after he inspired them to a 4-0 win over Crystal Palace.
After another sluggish first-half performance from Antonio Conte's side, they exploded into life when Kane scored twice in the space of five minutes soon after the break, with Matt Doherty and a resurgent Heung-Min Son then extending their lead as they cut the gap to fourth-placed Manchester United to two points.
Kane's goals, on what was his 300th Premier League appearance, took him to 266 in all competitions, within two of Jimmy Greaves' Tottenham scoring record, and he also claimed the assist for the fourth with his ball over the top for Son.
"We said before the game that when you've got a player like Harry Kane you've always got a chance and that came to fruition there," said Sky Sports pundit Redknapp afterwards.
"He was just incredible, not just his goals, his all-round play. He held it up, brought people into play, his touch was exquisite. It was a masterclass second half and his second goal is as good as it gets.
"The touch and the finish is sublime and we've seen him do it time and time again. Just an incredible player."
Souness was similarly impressed by Kane's second goal, when the striker controlled Bryan Gil's pass inside the Palace box and fired an angled drive into the far corner.
