What’s going on now?Ruben Neves is down and both sets of players are shoving and pushing. It looks like Harry Kane and Neves have been swapping off-the-ball trips and shoves. Nathan Collins then shoves Kane and prompts the aggro.


That goal sees Harry Kane reach 185 in the Premier League and moves him above Sergio Aguero (184) on the all-time top scorers list.
