Spurs striker Kane: Gil deserved his chance

Tottenham star Harry Kane has lavished praise on youngster Bryan Gil.

The 21-year-old winger put in an impressive display against Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

Spurs came away with a much needed 4-0 away win on Wednesday, with Gil providing an assist for one of Kane's goals in the contest.

“I'm really happy for Bryan," Kane told Evening Standard post-game.

“He's waited patiently for his chance, worked really hard on the training pitch.

“I say to everyone, 'just be ready for your opportunity', and Bryan was there last night.

“He would have been a little bit disappointed after the last game, but he came out and showed his quality. I'm delighted for him and I'm sure he'll be ready for the next one."
