A mere consolation in a loss to Liverpool.
Standard of Opposition 10/10
Liverpool
FootballCritic Verdict
Kane is usually viewed as a destructor, not a creator, from midfield, but once again he shows a composure when striking on goal which makes you wonder whiy he doesn't get on the scoresheet more often
