Harry Kane scored a sensational winner against Juventus
The Tottenham skipper started from the bench and only came on after the break when Mauricio Pochettino made five changes. Kane immediately became the focal point of the attack for Spurs and his combination with Lucas Moura started to take shape. He did have a half-chance early on in the second half, but it fell to his weaker side and his first-time volley was off target.

He had another chance to score in the 59th minute, rising highest in the penalty area and putting a powerful header wide. The England skipper was looking increasingly menacing, but the Juventus defense held on. However, his chance arrived in the dying moments of the game.
In the 93rd minute, Lucas Moura won the ball in his own half and as the ball found its way to Kane, the Englishman hit a first-time volley from the halfway line. Szczesny was out of his line and the ball spectacularly found its way into the net. A fascinating winner for a highly entertaining game.

Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
