Harry Kane Is Being Criticised For A 'Disgusting Off-Ball Tackle' On Gabriel

Arsenal fans are furious Harry Kane managed to avoid any kind of punishment for a 'disgusting' challenge on Gabriel.

Spurs were chasing the game with 15 minutes to go on Sunday afternoon and were 2-1 down, while also being a man down after Erik Lamela's red card.

Kane attempted to dispossess Gabriel but instead barged into the Brazilian rather clumsily.

The challenge wasn't checked by VAR and referee Michael Oliver didn't think it warranted any punishment.

Fans have reacted to the challenge and they believed England captain Kane was lucky to escape without any consequences.

Spurs took the lead in the first half through Lamela, who scored an outrageous rabona with his left foot.

The Gunners were in control throughout however and equalised thanks to Martin Odegaard's deflected effort just before half-time.

Davinson Sanchez hauled down Alexandre Lacazette in the penalty area in the second half, with the Frenchman slotting past Hugo Lloris to give Arsenal the lead.

Lamela was given his marching orders not long after for a second bookable offence.

The away side had their chances at an equaliser and Kane even had the ball in the back of the net, but it was disallowed.
