Antonio Conte heaps praise on Tottenham talisman Harry Kane following win over Leeds United

The England captain netted his 12th goal of the campaign against the Yorkshire club as he opened the scoring for his underfire Tottenham side. Conte claimed that Kane was fatigued after their League Cup defeat to Nottingham Forest this week. However, he played up Kane's importance to Tottenham after their win over Leeds. The Italian praised Kane's physicality after the comeback win, as he stated in his post-match press conference (as per ): "I have to be honest, in this period Harry played a really important role. If we finished this period in the top four and qualified for the top four, I think we have to praise Harry a lot because we have had many injuries at the front. Kulusevski only played this game, we lost Richarlison and without Lucas from the start." He added: "Sonny you know also, he struggled a bit in the start of the season. I think Harry honestly deserves great praise because he is always an important player but in this period there was a lot of weight on his shoulders and he played in a great way." Kane has missed just 12 minutes in 15 Premier League matches for Tottenham this season. Conte also claimed that the England captain is ready for the upcoming FIFA World Cup in Qatar: "He's arriving at the World Cup with plenty of enthusiasm, in a great physical condition and he's mentally stronger. I think he's ready and I can see it in his eyes, he's ready to be the protagonist."GOAL: 1-1, Kane - but huge protests from Leeds about a challenge on Meslier leading up to it.
