Kane's second-half brace and Mourinho's half-time talk spark Tottenham turnaround

Tottenham Hotspur turned a first-half two-goal deficit into a full-time 4-2 win against Olympiakos in Group B of the Champions League on Tuesday to book their place in the round of 16. In what was Jose Mourinho's first home game in charge at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, fans' initial groans and grumbles turned to cheers and elation after Deli Alli's fortuitous first-half tap-in was complemented by Harry Kane's brace and Serge Aurier's late strike.

Positives

The hosts' ability to listen to what was evidently a strong half-time message from Mourinho must encourage supporters ahead of intriguing fixtures against Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Chelsea.
