Harry humming Diego's praises

Tottenham star Harry Kane said he would love to learn some tricks from Argentine soccer legend Diego Maradona.

Kane - whose brace in the 4-1 dismantling of Liverpool on Sunday took his tally to 45 goals in 40 games for Spurs and England this year - admitted he hadn't understood much of what 56-year-old Maradona said when he met him ahead of Sunday's match.

Maradona's command of English isn't terrific - indeed he remains a bogeyman to some in England for his infamous 'Hand of God' goal in the 1986 World Cup quarterfinal - and while there has been speculation Kane could join one of Spain's big clubs next season, his knowledge of Spanish is equally poor.
