​Kane full of confidence after hat-trick heroics

Tottenham striker Harry Kane has described his delight at scoring a hat-trick in Spurs' 5-1 demolition of Bournemouth on Sunday.

Prior to the clash with the Cherries, the 22-year-old had only one Premier League goal to his name this campaign.

However, Kane rediscovered the form that saw him find the back of the net 21 times last season with a clinical display at the Vitality Stadium.

The England international converted an early penalty before striking twice in the second half to complete his three-goal haul.

"There was no doubt I was going to take the penalty," Kane told Sky Sports.

"I won it myself so I was happy to take it, step up there and get on the scoresheet. I was delighted to see it go in.

"As a striker, your confidence grows when you get one and two and I wanted to go after the third and fourth and fifth but I'm very happy with the three goals."
