Harry Kane scored a stunning goal from the halfway line to give Tottenham Hotspur a 3-2 victory over Juventus in their International Champions Cup clash at Singapore's National Stadium.
The England captain scored deep into injury-time to spark wild celebrations among his teammates, who could scarcely believe their eyes after Kane hit a first-time effort from halfway over the head of Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
Spurs had initially take the lead thanks to Erik Lamela's first-half effort, despite manager Mauricio Pochettino fielding an experimental team against Maurizio Sarri's full-strength Juventus side. But the Italian side's talent soon told in the second half as Gonzalo Higuain came off the bench to equalise before Cristiano Ronaldo put them ahead inside four minutes of each other.
Lucas Moura levelled soon after for the Premier League side with Kane introduced for the second half, while Sarri handed first appearances to Juventus new boys Matthijs de Ligt and Adrien Rabiot. But the best was saved for last as Kane produced his moment of magic to seal the victory to keep Tottenham's pre-season plans on track. Re-live the action below.

38: Oh wow...
Matuidi delivers a brilliant cross from the left to Ronaldo. He rises highest but completely missed the ball. You do not see that very often. Tottenham have got away with one there.
Juventus 0-1 Tottenham
Spurs are deserved leaders at the break after Erik Lamela gave Mauricio Pochettino's side the lead mid-way through the first-half.
There's a lot of subs here, so bare with.
Kane, Lucas, Sissoko, Foyth and Vertonghen are on for Spurs.
Juventus introduce Higuain Rabiot and Szczesny. No De Ligt just yet and Ronaldo stays on.
Sissoko starts things off with a late challenge on Ronaldo, standard.
Juventus 0-1 Tottenham
48: Woah...almost an own goal as Vertonghen heads the ball the ball back and catches Gazzaniga off-guard.
Spurs break forward and Lucas is hacked from behind just inside the penalty area, the referee says no to huge appeals for a penalty. Kane and Pochettino rightly bemused by that.
Juventus 1-1 Tottenham
Gonzalo Higuain levels the score with a decent strike just inside the area. It's low and hit with power and may just take a slight deflection on its way past Gazzaniga.
Juventus1-1 Tottenham
58: Harry Kane nearly instantly puts Spurs ahead again, but his header from Lamela's cross sails just wide.
Juventus 2-1 Tottenham
61: Just four minutes after Juventus got back onto level terms, they're ahead! Spurs give Juve so much time on the left and a low ball arrives straight into Cristiano Ronaldo's path and he makes no mistake with the finish.
Juventus 2-1 Tottenham
63: Here we go, Matthijs de Ligt and Tanguy Ndombele enter the action. Let's see what they've got. Ronaldo makes way.
