Harry Kane gets belated send-off from Spurs fans excited by trio of new arrivals
Tottenham lose 3-2 to Bayern Munich in friendly but young stars give Ange Postecoglou materials to rebuild his attack
It may have been the second match in a glamour friendly double header, but this game carried greater significance for Tottenham fans. Harry Kane loomed large over proceedings: as the massed crowds in white shirts funnelled out of White Hart Lane station and down Whitehall Street, they could not help but be reminded of their all-time record goalscorer as they shuffled past the enormous mural of his face gazing searchingly back at them.
He was an inescapable presence on his first return to the club since leaving for Bayern Munich last summer, his likeness emblazoned on half-and-half scarves, his name on the back of home and away shirts alike. When his name was first read out among the Bayern substitutes, there was a swell of noise that belied the half-empty stadium.
