The Premier League goals accreditation panel have awarded Spurs’ second against Stoke in their 2-1 win there on Saturday to Harry Kane following a successful appeal, despite a lack of evidence.

Originally given to teammate Christian Eriksen, the striker’s instance that it was he who got the final touch seems to have convinced the adjudicators who overturned their decision “after taking the player’s testimony into account”.

These were the best of the Harry Kane dubious goal jokes after the panel’s decision to give Eriksen’s strike against Stoke to the Englishman following an appeal:

A big well done to The Premier League Goal Accreditation Appeals Panel who have just saved the life of Harry Kane's daughter.

Harry Kane claiming he scored that goal like your mate claims he knocked out some 6ft4 guy on his family holiday in Malaga because he was giving him shit.

You know he’s probably chatting shit, but there isn’t a definitive way to prove him wrong so you have to let it slide.
