MATCH ATTAX 19/20 HARRY KANE HAT TRICK HERO TRADING CARD - TOTTENHAM/SPURS #318

Product Information

It’s a record that doesn’t seem likely to be broken by anyone else in the foreseeable future, and it’s one accolade that the player is clearly gunning for. The game had been an uninspiring encounter up until the flashpoint on 57 minutes, when Toffees midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure was given a deserved straight red card after pushing Kane in the face off the ball. Italy were still in the hunt, just, and after what would surely have been some choice half-time words from coach Roberto Mancini they came out fighting in the second half. INCIDENT: At the start of the second half, there were two identical challenges. Granit Xhaka caught Raphinha on the ankle with his studs showing. However, he was not booked.

It is normal when the fans are unhappy, but in my opinion it was a clear red card [for Doucouré]. You have to realise the situation. If the [Everton] fans are unhappy with the decision taken, I say it was a good decision. If he's sent to the screen, you're telling him it's practically a red card so there's a dilemma. It got overlooked on the pitch. England now have the chance to build on these three points when they face Ukraine at Wembley on Sunday. England win in subdued NaplesNeville said: “There’s no debate on the red card at all, we’re all in agreement that Doucoure puts his hand up, everybody’s said that ultimately you can’t do this and you should be sent off. England's first-half display was consummate in its control, Italy made to look decidedly average as Rice and Jude Bellingham controlled affairs and Kane made history.

Spurs’ caretaker manager Cristian Stellini denied that Kane fell too easily after being shoved in the face by Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucouré at Goodison Park, reducing the hosts to 10 men in the 58th minute. The result takes Tottenham into the Champions League places with nine games to play, but Stellini's side have now failed to win their last six games away from home. Former Clarets proving criticalFor the best part of an hour this was an insipid contest as both sides struggled to create any clear-cut opportunities in the final third. Cristian Stellini, the Spurs acting head coach, also stated what everyone on the pitch knew to be true. “Doucouré’s hand was clearly in the face. I was very close to the situation and it was a clear red card.” Listen, the debate is not about the red card, Harry Kane should not go down for that,” Carragher said. “He should not be going down. It can still be a red card for putting your hand in somebody’s face, Doucoure is wrong and I’m sure Sean Dyche will tell him that. I wouldn’t go down there, as a player. Neville added: "They were OK - nothing spectacular. They've been a bit dour to watch for quite a long time. I'm a lot nicer than I was 15 years ago. If Harry Kane stands up there, we are talking about winning Champions League football or staying in the Premier League with relegation, if he stands up there that might have been a yellow card because it is deemed as being just a little hand-off.

Their cause was helped by an England performance barely recognisable from the first half, the visitors conceding control as well as the goal that set up a tense finish.

Early rookie cards are always going to be the most coveted options in the long run. The only real choice is whether or not you want him in an England or Tottenham shirt. Final Thoughts Was it an exaggerated reaction? Absolutely. Was it embarrassing for a player of Kane’s stature and physical power to be tumbling to the turf? Of course it was. But is there one Premier League player who would have reacted any differently to such an incident? Almost certainly not. And if a player did fail to take advantage of such a swipe, you can be sure their manager would have been furious about it. Carragher says Tottenham are a mess with their managerial situation and Fabio Paratici's suspension

It’s improbable that Tottenham will win anything significant, but you can never say never with a 30-goal per season striker up top. Then there’s England, who have reached a semi and a final in their last two outings. It’s] not enough to send him on the floor; he's embarrassing himself,” Murphy said. “Why's he gone over like that stitching someone up? Doucouré would have been sent off anyway. England's drop in performance was compounded by Luke Shaw's second yellow card with 10 minutes left but they hung on for a vital win. As long as he stays in England, Kane is sure to eclipse Shearer’s EPL goal record. (Especially if he joins the likes of Man City along the way, or stays with Tottenham.) Ultimately it took Keane's stunning goal to rescue something from the game, the draw pulling Everton level with West Ham, Bournemouth and Forest on 27 points in the congested bottom half of the table.He’s got to challenge for it but then you can’t raise your hands. We know that. I just don’t think the challenge needed to be made.” Analysis: ‘Spursy’ Tottenham show Everton how to self-implode I think it’s a sending off but I think somebody like Harry Kane… say if he stood up, we’d all have said it was brilliant, that he could have gone down and that’s what it’s all about. Carragher then chimed in, adding: "Listen, the debate is not about the red card, Harry Kane should not go down for that. He should not be going down. It can still be a red card for putting your hand in somebody’s face, Doucoure is wrong and I’m sure Sean Dyche will tell him that. I wouldn’t go down there, as a player.
