Spurs Joy
Tottenham put one food firmly in the quarter finals of the Europa League after seeing off a resilient Dinamo Zagreb 2-0 this evening.
Harry Kane scored twice, but also exited after seeming to hurt his knee after being hacked down. He was seen icing it after coming off, but Spurs fans will be hoping he came off merely as a precaution with the London Derby coming up on the weekend.
Harry Kane down holding his knee. Wouldn’t be the build-up to the derby without a little bit of injury drama, would it?

He made no mention of it as he tweeted post match, which Spurs fans will hope is a good sign.
Great result and an important clean sheet. Got to finish it off next week. pic.twitter.com/2iQjGTFEpS

Kane gave Spurs the lead in the 25th minute when he was in the right place to put the ball in the net after Erik Lamela hit the inside of the post.
The second, which came in the 70th minute, was a gift after a terrible attempted clearance from Kevin Theophile-Catherine was dispatched into the bottom corner.
However there was to be no second European hat-trick of the season after he was replaced following a challenge from Arijan Ademi.
You just CANNOT make mistakes like that around Harry Kane! 😤

Jose Mourinho said in his post match discussion with BT Sport:
Mourinho: “The result could be a little bit bigger. A third goal would fit very well in the reality of the game. It is still open, we have to go there and play a serious match because 2-0 we are not yet in the quarter-finals.” #THFC

When asked about Harry Kane’s potential injury he replied.
Mourinho on whether Harry Kane will be fit for Sunday’s north London derby after that kick to his knee: “I hope so and I believe so. It’s a big match and he will expect to be there.” https://t.co/gY7GfyrUs1

We will have to wait until Sunday to see if Kane is ok, but based on Mourinho’s words, it looks like he will be ready for the Derby and to keep his side in the race for the top 4.
