A record! Harry Kane surpasses Henry to become the first man to score 100 Premier League away goals
The game against Arsenal was specific for the Tottenham striker. His team lost, but not only did Harry Kane score his 100th away goal in the Premier League, but he also surpassed Thierry Henry in the number of goals in the London derby.
The game against Arsenal was specific for the Tottenham striker. His team lost, but not only did Harry Kane score his 100th away goal in the Premier League, but he also surpassed Thierry Henry in the number of goals in the London derby.
Tottenham took on their London rival, Arsenal, after the national break. In the match played at the Emirates Stadium, the “Roosters” were not able to keep up with their opponent and lost 1: 3.
The only goal scored by coach Conte’s charges was scored by captain Harry Kane. In the 29th minute Richarlison was fouled, the referee called a penalty and the English striker shot into the middle of the net.
Although Kane’s goal did not mean a win, it was a very specific goal. For the lanky striker, who is in his tenth consecutive season at Tottenham, it was his 100th goal in away games.
He became the first player in Premier League history to reach the 100 away goals mark. The two closest to him are two legends of English football. While Wayne Rooney scored 94 goals, Alan Shearer managed to score 87.
However, that wasn’t the only statistic that Kane made football history with. In fact, he managed to surpass former Arsenal player Thierry Henry in a match against the eternal rival.
The Tottenham striker surpassed him in the number of goals scored against teams from London. Henry has historically scored 43 of them, Kane already has one more. And given that the England captain is only 29 years old, we can expect him to add to his goal collection before the end of his career.
