Harry Kane’s eighth goal of the Premier League season pushed Tottenham Hotspur into third place on the Premier League table with a 1-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday.
Tottenham was feeling heavy after the passing of Gian Piero Ventrone, a fitness coach at 61, earlier this week.

Emotion visible for Spurs: Gian Piero Ventrone’s death from leukemia earlier this week was visible on pre-match tee shirts and then throughout the game. Kane choked up in his post-match interview, Antonio Conte was visibly sad as he left the pitch, and Hugo Lloris held up a “Gian Piero” Spurs shirt to the traveling fans who sang his name after the game. Stirring, really.
“It’s been a difficult week to say the least and it was nice to get a win today,” Kane said, pausing to collect himself more than once during the comment.
Ryan Sessegnon devoted the win to Ventrone.
“100%,” Sessegnon added. “We knew we had to perform today and obviously we wanted to win because of him.”
Harry Kane keeps scoring, limps off: There’s a multi-verse in which we’re discussing the fact that Harry Kane is on pace to break the Premier League single-season goal record but Erling Haaland. Kane has eight goals in nine matches this season, on pace for 33.7 goals in a season (Can’t wait to see what that .7 looks like in real life).
Erling Haaland, England's captain, is making the scoring leader list look like it belongs indoor soccer. And double unfortunately, Kane’s attempted clearance in the 90th minute coincided with Alexis Mac Allister’s left-footed shot attempt at the same ball, catching him on the back of the ankle. He had to leave the match as precaution at a minimum, and anything with Kane’s problematic ankles will be closely monitored by Spurs fans.
“It’s just a knock, I think,” Kane said after the game.
Brighton will feel it could’ve gotten more: The Seagulls forced four saves out of Hugo Lloris and put Spurs under threat on a few lengthy occasions over the course of the 90 minutes, and midfielder Alexis Mac Allister was arguably the best player on the pitch — or at least in the discussion with Kane, Son, and Hugo Lloris; Throw-in the fact that Tottenham played UEFA Champions League football earlier in the week and the fact that this was a home game and Brighton will feel it should’ve come away with at least a point.

Spurs fans got their 3-5-2 to start the match and it’s fitting that Kane and Heung-min Son teamed up for a goal in the first 22 minutes. Brighton was able to establish a foothold in the game, but Antonio Conte was proactive in bringing in Richarlison to replace Yves Bissouma, who was on a yellow.
