Harry Kane breaks August curse with goal against Fulham

Harry Kane

Harry Kane scored his first ever Premier League goal in August at the 15th attempt, as Tottenham ran out 3-1 winners against Fulham at Wembley.

The Cottagers started slowly and deservedly went in at the break 1-0 behind after Lucas Moura’s brilliant opener, but they came on strong after the interval and found an equaliser through Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Slavisa Jokanovic’s side had chances to take the lead in this London derby, but it was Kieran Trippier who grabbed the all-important third goal with a fine free-kick.

Kane then rounded off the scoring in the 77th minute, finishing coolly after collecting Erik Lamela’s pass.

Kelechi Iheanacho didn’t find the net but Leicester City still edged Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0.

After a creditable 2-2 draw with Everton on the opening weekend, Wolves arrived at the King Power Stadium looking for their first victory of the season.

Nuno Espirito’s side performed well for much of this game and could easily have scored twice early on, but a failure to take their chances came back to haunt the visitors.

James Maddison and a Matt Doherty own goal got the job done for the Foxes.
