Tottenham midfielder Eriksen defends off-form Kane

Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen has jumped to the defence of Harry Kane.

The England international is battling for form ahead of their Champions League kickoff against Inter Milan.

"Everyone expects him to score three times every game," said Eriksen.

"As a team we know how to serve him. But in a team that loses, it is difficult to score goals, even if the team does create opportunities.

"I know Harry wants to score more, just like the rest of the team wants.

"In the end it does not matter who scores and who does not. It's about winning matches."
