Harry Kane scored his 19th and 20th goals of the current Premier League season as Tottenham beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 on Saturday.

Kane's first goal of the match came from a header in the 19th minute as January signing Pedro Porro claimed his first ever EPL assist.

The England captain then doubled his tally for the day from a 35th-minute penalty kick won by Richarlison.

Son Heung-min made it 3-0 before Joe Worrall headed home a consolation goal for Forest.

Kane had not scored 20 goals in a Premier League season since the 2020/21 campaign, when he got 23.

But Kane has now reached the landmark in six different EPL seasons, having previously got there in 2014/15, 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18.

Only two other players in Premier League history have scored 20 or more goals in six different seasons.

Former Newcastle and Blackburn striker Alan Shearer hit the 20-goal mark in seven seasons, while Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero did so in six campaigns.
