LONDON ¨C A rampant Harry Kane netted four goals and livewire Son Heung-min scored twice as Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Leicester City 6-1 in an action-packed Premier League clash on Thursday.
The match was a effectively a dead rubber with Spurs already assured of finishing second behind champions Chelsea but Kane produced a superb individual performance to go top of the scoring chart as in-form Son also impressed.
Having taken his tally to 26 league goals to move above Everton¡¯s Romelu Lukaku (24) and Arsenal¡¯s Alexis Sanchez (23), Kane vowed there would be no let-up in the final game of the season when Spurs visit relegated Hull City.
¡°I wanted to get one or two goals at least and take it (the battle for the Golden Boot) to the final game,¡± the England striker told Sky Sports after firing Spurs ahead and rifling in a second half hat trick.
¡°I am in the driving seat but there¡¯s still one more game. I am not resting on my laurels but I hope to get four more.
¡°Hopefully I can get the Golden Boot and hopefully (Tottenham goalkeeper) Hugo Lloris can get the Golden Glove (for the most clean sheets).¡±
