Harry Kane shares video from his home as Tottenham see off Man City

Harry Kane was no doubt a nervous fan on Wednesday night as he watched his Tottenham side fight for a Champions League semi-final spot with Manchester City .

The Spurs striker picked up a potential season-ending injury in the first leg of the last-eight tie last week after a tangle with England team-mate Fabian Delph.

He was forced to watch the Etihad encounter from his home, and would have hardly believed what he saw as Spurs booked a semi-final date with Ajax in dramatic fashion.

Sterling thought he had completed a stunning hat-trick in the dying the moments of a pulsating Champions League quarter-final but VAR intervened and Spurs went through to the semi-finals despite a 4-3 defeat on the night.

Sergio Aguero was adjudged to have strayed offside in the build-up, deflating City and meaning that Spurs would prevail with the score 4-4 on aggregate.

Kane immediately took to social media to congratulate his team-mates, posting a video on Twitter in which he shouted: “Come on.”

It was an incredible ending to a thrilling contest, which had seen both sides lead.

Sterling and Son Heung-min both struck twice in the first half, with Bernardo Silva's deflected effort giving the hosts the lead.

An Aguero strike then put City in control of the tie but a bundled Fernando Llorente goal proved decisive for Spurs.

Play was held up for a VAR referral as the ball appeared to brush the Spaniard's arm before bouncing in off his hip but he was eventually given the benefit of the doubt.

City needed a late response and they thought they had found it as Sterling showed great footwork in the box before poking past Lloris, but VAR saved Spurs.
