Harry Kane of Spurs scores his teams second goal during the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 First Leg match between Tottenham Hotspur and Dinamo Zagreb at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on March 11, 2021 in London, England.
Harry Kane scored twice as Tottenham Hotspur put one foot in the Europa League quarter-finals with a clinical display against Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb.
Kane opened the scoring with a 25th-minute rebound before doubling Spurs' advantage with a composed low finish in the 70th minute.
But the Tottenham striker was unable to complete his hat-trick, limping off late on with a knock to his knee.
Spurs face rivals Arsenal in the north London derby in their next fixture on Sunday, and boss Jose Mourinho said the England international will be fit to start.
"Sunday is a match everyone wants to play and little things will not stop him," he told BT Sport. "I don't have the feeling it is anything serious."
Mourinho made seven changes to the side that beat Crystal Palace on Sunday, but by keeping Kane as a starter the Spurs manager signalled the club's intent to fight for Champions League qualification via the Europa League.
"[Kane] is doing everything," added Mourinho.
"He is doing the striker job of scoring goals. The team work of creating space and linking play and the extra work not many strikers do in defence.
"We can't go to Zagreb and try to defend the advantage - we have to go there and try to win."

"He helps us a lot. He has an incredible number of clearances from crosses and corners. We couldn't be happier. I gave a rest to many of the players, but with Harry on the pitch it is a different story for us."
