Spurs 5-1 Shakhtar Donestsk: FIVE THINGS WE LEARNED as Harry Kane shines and Ange Postecoglou takes risks

Spurs swept aside Shakhtar Donetsk 5-1 thanks to four goals from Harry Kane and a late strike from teenager Dane Scarlett at the Tottenham Hotpsur Stadium.

In Ange Postecoglou's first game at home in front of the Tottenham faithful, Kane showed exactly why Bayern Munich want him - and why Daniel Levy is so desperate to keep him.

He wasn't the only shining star, though. Pape Matar Sarr made the case for himself in midfield and is emerging as a real contender for a starting berth.

His midfield counterparts James Maddison and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg also made statements, with the former seeking to make a splash with his new club and the latter pursued by Atletico Madrid.
