This match ended up as a reminder that Harry Kane can never truly be contained. Yet Roy Hodgson, frantically reorganising his back-line as the contest drifted towards its denouement, must have known how this tends to play out. He should still have been stronger but he twisted too late in trying to stifle his opponent. Even Hodgson would not deny Tottenham had “the best of the play and created all the chances”, though the finale still felt cruel. In our best moments, with our best team, we can be quite effective.” Their run-in is going to be excruciatingly tense.
