Leicester City fans will be wondering what the hell happened as their side rolled over and allowed Harry Kane to have his way with the 'Premier League Top Goalscorer' charts on Thursday night.
The game was relatively even until Kane scored his second of the game just after the hour mark to make it 3-1, but while the Spurs players were clearly determined to ensure that their man ended up ahead of Romelu Lukaku in the race for the golden boot, Leicester didn't really care at all.
That is not to take anything away from Kane, as he made a mockery of the Leicester defence and scored two near-identical goals to put an emphatic stamp on the result. It finished 6-1 in the end, with Heung-Min Son bagging the other two, meaning that along with Dele Alli three Spurs players will end the season with 20+ goals.
Harry Kane is supposedly a one-season wonder, but which 30 goal plus season are we talking about?

Harry Kane has scored an incredible 51 goals in his last 58 Premier League games. Nothing else needs to be added to that. What a night.

Harry Kane scored four goals to take the league lead *and* motivate Lukaku to go off against Arsenal on Sunday

Harry Kane now has as many PL hat-tricks as Ronaldo + Bergkamp + Zola + Diego Costa + Cantona combined

After the match, Kane delivered a warning to Hull City that he's not finished there. Just as well they are not looking for a result to stay up then, probably.
