Spurs need to back up Red Star win in Premier League, says Kane

Harry Kane says Tottenham's 5-0 Champions League mauling of Red Star Belgrade will count for little unless they use it as a catalyst to turn around their miserable Premier League form.

Tuesday's result at home against the Serbian champions revives Mauricio Pochettino's sides hopes of European progress after a humiliating 7-2 defeat by Bayern Munich earlier this month.

Spurs, who reached last season's Champions League final, are second in Group B with four points after three matches, behind leaders Bayern.

Kane, who scored twice against Red Star, said he hoped Tottenham would take the momentum from their win into their match against Premier League leaders Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.

"At home we were expected to win this game so we can't get too carried away with it," he said. "We have to stay focused and take the positives and take them into the Premier League.

"It is exactly what we needed, a great performance, a lot of energy, plenty of goals, a clean sheet -- a perfect night.

"But it doesn't stop here, it was a game we were expected to win. We have got a very tough game on Sunday so I hope we can take momentum into that."
