Kane to start as Tottenham welcomes Real Madrid

Harry Kane will be threatening Real Madrid’s defence on Wednesday.

Kane was named to Tottenham Hotspur’s starting lineup for a Champions League game versus Real Madrid, recovered from the hamstring problem that kept him out of a defeat at Manchester United. The match will mark his first appearance since he tallied two goals in a victory over Liverpool.

Heung-Min Son, who started for Tottenham at Old Trafford, was dropped to the bench.

Kane, who boasts five goals and one assist in the Champions League, played a significant role in Tottenham’s draw at Real Madrid, pressuring Keylor Navas as the ball crossed the line.
