The in-form Kane broke the deadlock in the 50th minute, receiving the ball on the edge of the box and bending a fine curled effort past the despairing dive of Josh Griffiths. Harry Kane fired Tottenham past third-tier Portsmouth and into the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday as 2021 winners Leicester emerged unscathed from a tricky tie against lowly Gillingham. Antonio Conte rang the changes for Spurs for the match against League One Portsmouth but retained a heavyweight forward line including Kane and Son Heung-min.

Tottenham was yet again indebted to Harry Kane, who scored his 17th goal of the season to send Spurs into the fourth round of the FA Cup.

My mindset is to help the team and hopefully the goals will come. 14 - Harry Kane has scored 14 goals in his last 14 appearances in the FA Cup, averaging a goal every 63 minutes in the competition in this period. Obviously I feel in good form and I feel fit.

Harry Kane's sole second-half strike was enough to see Spurs through to the fourth round of the FA Cup as they narrowly beat Portsmouth.

Today may have been the perfect chance for him to show Antonio Conte what he is all about but he was only given 15 minutes. THE BIG LOSER: For all his weaknesses, Emerson Royal was again preferred to Djed Spence, the right wing-back signed by Spurs in the summer. His wonderful strike, that saw him cut inside and exchange passes before bending the ball into the far corner, was enough to carry Spurs into the fourth round.

Here are our Tottenham Hotspur player ratings after their 1-0 victory against Portsmouth in the FA Cup third round on Saturday afternoon.

Lacked service in the first half but opened the scoring five minutes after the break with a fine curling finish after a one-two with Sessegnon. He did grab an assist though with his part in a one-two with Kane for the striker's goal. Worked hard while trying to play in a more attacking role than Sarr in a very young midfield pairing. His movement off the ball is very good as is his anticipation, making a number of important interceptions. Offered little down the right until getting on the end of a Son cross and was unfortunate to send his header across goal and off the left-hand post. Nothing got past him and he used the ball well with his head and feet.

Tottenham Hotspur assistant manager Cristian Stellini says Yves Bissouma is available to play against Arsenal in the North London derby.

We are happy that Bissouma spoke the truth and we could make the right choice.” [Arsenal have to really worry about £200,000-a-week Tottenham player now](/en-gb/2023/01/07/arsenal-have-to-really-worry-about-200000-a-week-tottenham-player-now/) [£35m Arsenal target who joined Spurs instead this year labelled 'absolutely shocking'](/en-gb/2022/12/28/35m-arsenal-target-who-joined-spurs-instead-this-year-labelled-absolutely-shocking/) [Football.London](https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/fixtures-results/stellini-sarr-gil-kane-bissouma-25921200) that [Yves Bissouma](/en-gb/topic/yves-bissouma/) is available to play against Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in the North London derby next weekend.

Tottenham are among Premier League clubs that Qatar Sports Investments are in contact with over potential investment.

The process is in its early stages, but talks have already taken place between Levy and Nasser Al-Khelaifi earlier this week, where the Qatari chief explored the opportunity. Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has held a meeting to discuss the avenue as Qatar seek involvement in English football. And Qatar could soon join them, with PSG's ownership looking to branch out into another of Europe's elite domestic leagues. South America is also being eyed for investment. The report claims Qatar Sports Investments is actively speaking with Premier League clubs to weigh up their options before pressing forward with concrete plans.

Liverpool, on the other hand, despite reports to the contrary, are yet to hold talks with Qatari Sports Investment. Tottenham Hotspur are one of a number of Premier League clubs understood to be attracting ongoing interest by way of the Qatari Sports Investment group. They are expected to ‘make ambitious multi-club investments in 2023′, though, with Spurs, it would seem, very much in the mix.
