Depressed in the Premier League in seventh place, Tottenham gave themselves some joy in the Cup against one of the most reliable teams in the English League. Brighton, always fighting against any team, but with the European places within reach, wanted to stay in a tournament that could bring them more emotions.

However, they could not contain Harry Kane, who increased his scoring tally in the last month. He already scored against Morecambe also in the FA Cup and against Leicester in the Premier League. Now, the victim was Brighton, who missed out on the prize of the round of 16 because of the England international.

Harry Kane was on target

Kane opened the scoring with a truly spectacular goal. After thirteen minutes, he made space for himself on the edge of the box and launched a powerful shot at the goal defended by Spaniard Robert Sanchez, who could do nothing to prevent Tottenham's first goal.

Shortly after, Brighton conceded their second. Brazilian Emerson Royal took an immense run up the pitch, got to the byline, and, as he attempted to cross, his shot struck Solomon March's foot and flew into Robert Sanchez's goal. At first glance, it looked like an incredible goal, a no-angle lob that turned out to be an optical effect. March caused the Tottenham player's "genius shot".

Then, although Ivorian Yves Bissouma reduced the deficit with half an hour to go, Kane quickly appeared again to seal the match. The Tottenham striker collected a rebound almost under the line and scored the final goal that will keep Antonio Conte's men alive in the FA Cup.

Despite signing two players this market, Conte is not satisfied

After a turbulent winter transfer window at Tottenham, Antonio Conte is not happy with the outcome of his squad in February. The Spurs has completed the arrivals of Kulusevski and Bentancur from Juventus but has suffered the loss of four players.

These have been Dele Alli (Everton), Lo Celso (Villarreal), Bryan Gil (Valencia) and Ndombélé (Olympique Lyon). "It is not normal to lose four players in January. The fact that this has happened means that we have done something wrong in the past," said the former Inter coach.

In view of this situation, he already has in mind his objectives for the summer. According to The Telegraph, after prioritizing reinforcements in attack, the coach will ask for more defensive reinforcements in the next summer transfer window.

According to the aforementioned media, some targets for next year for the Italian are RB Leipzig's Josko Gvardiol, Inter's Andrea Bastoni, and Lille's Sven Botman, who has also recently been linked with Milan.
