Conte phones Kane

Conte was not on the touchline to witness his side's important milestone as he was forced to miss the occasion after he recently underwent surgery to remove his gall bladder.

While his assistant Cristian Stellini took charge of the match, Conte was quick to telephone Kane shortly after the match to congratulate him.

It was during the call when Kane made a cheeky request to Conte, joking if it would be possible for the squad to take a two-day off.

"Boss, we see you Wednesday?" Kane asked jokingly.

His request was met with laughter from his own teammates, with Eric Dier chanting down the phone: "Two days off, two days off."

Kane struggles with free kicks

Sports Brief also reported on that for all his goal-scoring prowess, Kane has one major weakness in his game - the ability to take free kicks.

Top marksmen in football like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi all have one thing in common: being equally dangerous from set pieces.

Not Kane though, with the 29-year-old having a torrid record when it comes to free kicks and having scored just once in 56 attempts.
