Tottenham striker Harry Kane has hit back at Virgil van Dijk's claim he is a diver. Liverpool defender claimed the England international went down far too easily under pressure from goalkeeper Loris Karius for the first of two Spurs penalties in the 2-2 draw at Anfield. Kane, whose first spot-kick was saved but converted a second in the fifth minute of added time to salvage a point and reach 100 Premier League goals, denied the Dutchman's allegation. "He (Karius) has dived, he got in the way and I'm a player, I'm not going to jump out of the way because it's football," said Kane. "I felt contact and I went down."
