Tanguy Ndombele, the club's record signing, got his first taste of competitive action in the Premier League and the French midfielder had a debut to remember.

Starting in midfield alongside Harry Winks and Moussa Sissoko, Ndombele overcame his slow start and kept growing in stature as the game progressed.

Tom Heaton had no chance as Ndombele's sweetly struck shot from outside the penalty area drew Spurs level in the second half.

Spurs grew in confidence after the goal and Ndombele was central to all their moves as Kane's late double completed the comeback for the hosts.

The Frenchman was substituted to a standing ovation from the home faithful as he capped off a fine debut with a well taken goal.

Ndombele showed glimpses of why he was one of the most sought after midfielders in world football this summer and his form in the center of the park will be crucial to Spurs' title hopes.
