Harry Kane is not prepared to concede defeat in Premier League Golden Boot race to Erling Haaland

Tottenham forward Harry Kane is trailing Manchester City striker and Norwegian footballer Erling Haaland by 7 goals even after striking for the 8th time in this season's Premier League.

Agencies
In the Premier League Golden Boot race, there's a "long way to go," declared Tottenham forward Harry Kane as he scored another goal at Brighton on Saturday, continuing his impressive start to the new season.

The end of a difficult week for Spurs:

It was in the 22nd minute that a cross from Son Heung-min was converted by the English captain and helped Spurs finish a difficult week with a 1-0 victory. This week the team learned about the demise of Piero Ventrone, who at the age of 61 was their fitness coach.

Because of the incredible start to life for Erling Haaland at Manchester City by hitting his 15th goal on Saturday, Kane's (8th goal in this season’s Premier League) exploits have been barely mentioned. But Haaland’s rival at Tottenham is not willing to concede defeat this early in the new season.


Kane is "feeling good"

Kane said he’s "feeling good" despite some top players in the league. He also added that it is nice to move the scorecard, especially when the goals help win the game for the team.
