BVB keeper Burki lauds Spurs striker Kane: An absolute beast!

Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Roman Burki has labelled Harry Kane as a "beast" following Tuedsay night's loss to Tottenham Hotspur.

Kane scored the only goal of the match as Spurs sealed a 4-0 aggregate win to advance to the Champions League quarter-finals.

Speaking after the game, Burki said: "We knew it will be really difficult because of the loss in the first leg. Tottenham waited for their chance and with Harry Kane up front you can do that.

"You know he will score and it was like that. It was unlucky for us, but we played very well, especially in the first half. We need to take the positive things out of this game for the Bundesliga.

"I think if we would have scored one goal in London the situation would have been completely different. In the end that is football.

"They had one chance and scored, we had five or six chances and didn't score.

"Harry Kane is a beast. A player every team would love to have."
