Senegal star robs Harry Kane of another trophy dream

Another chance is gone, Harry. Oh, Harry, there goes another opportunity to get your hands on a trophy in Tottenham Hotspur colours. The cynics among us would have probably said that your chances were non-existent to begin with, but you know very well that Iliman Ndiaye’s strike on Wednesday night would hurt real bad.Kane will turn 30 in a few months. He’s been a professional footballer since 2010. He’s played in around 600 matches and scored well over 300 goals. Those are all impressive numbers, but Harry’s number of trophies won remains zero. For a world-class player, which Spurs skipper undoubtedly is, it’s a crying shame never to see him get his hands on a cup or trophy worth mentioning.Once a “future Messi”, Iliman couldn’t afford train tickets – but now he’s playing for the Teranga Lions in QatarThe latest missed opportunity for silverware was taken away from Spurs by Senegalese forward Ndiaye, who scored the only goal as second-tier side Sheffield United moved into the FA Cup quarter-final at the expense of Antonio Conte’s team.Ndiaye, who played against England at the World Cup, struck ten minutes from time, collecting a loose ball and hitting a low shot through the legs of Eric Dier to beat Fraser Forster and give the Blades a famous victory.##NAJAVA_MECA_7065036##The Senegalese was eliminated from the World Cup by Harry Kane and his England teammates in Qatar but gained his revenge on a chilly night in Yorkshire. There has been too many a painful cup exit over the years, with Spurs failing to get past the fifth round in the last five years, including last year’s extra-time defeat to another Championship side in Middlesbrough.Kane started the game on the bench, having been ill in the previous days, but he failed to impact the game after getting on. Cristian Romero, Oliver Skipp and Dejan Kulusevski were all left on the bench by Conte’s stand-in Cristian Stellini. But, the team featured Lucas Moura, Richarlison, Heung-min Son, Ivan Perisic, Eric Dier – and enough quality to overcome the Blades. But the hosts were inspired and determined – unlike their Premier League visitors.Unless Spurs can pull off something special against AC Milan next week when in the second leg of their Champions League tie, this will be another trophy-less season for the north London club.Harry Kane 6 years ago “I just want to win trophies”… pic.twitter.com/tGjlAI2i1v— Scott (@AccountNo100) March 1, 2023 English journalist Mark Ogden said that Tottenham failed to provide Kane with the tools to win and that they shouldn’t stand in their captain’s way again if he decides he’s had enough.”Who knows what Harry Kane will do? His contract expires at the end of next season. But if he wants to win trophies, he might have to leave Tottenham, and I’m sure that is keeping him awake at night. It’s a real tough dilemma for him because he wants to be loyal, he has been loyal, but I don’t think Tottenham could complain if Kane decided he wanted to move somewhere else to win trophies.”This might as well be the final straw for Kane.
