Jose Mourinho defends Harry Kane over “cheat” smear tag

Jose Mourinho insists Harry Kane is not a cheat like other Premier League stars.

The Tottenham boss is furious after his striker was accused of winning a VAR penalty against Brighton’s Adam Lallana on Sunday.

Mourinho said:”You are confused because you could be speaking about some Manchester United players.

“You could be speaking about some Man City players, you could be speaking about some Liverpool players, you could be speaking about some Chelsea players and yet you’re speaking about Harry Kane?

“He was in a position to control the ball in a dangerous position and Lallana came in with a very reckless action and committed a foul.

“What are you speaking about being clever or being not clever? Being clever is to hold the ball and shoot and score. It was a foul.”
