Harry Kane: It Will Be 'Hard Work' for Tottenham to Keep Up with Liverpool, City

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has said it will be "hard work" for his team to keep pace with Liverpool and Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title this term.

Kane was part of the Spurs side that suffered a shock loss at home to Newcastle United on Saturday. The defeat means that they are already five points behind leaders Liverpool after just three games of the 2019-20 season.

Given City have won the previous two Premier League campaigns with 100- and 98-point totals, the margin for error is tiny for those sides who have ambitions of pushing for the top spot.
