He left the pitch on his own strength, which is a positive sign and could indicate the injury shouldn’t keep him sidelined for too long.
“It is [positive], going undefeated like we have done since the first game of the season in the Premier League”.
The England striker, a surprise inclusion in the starting line-up with Spurs facing Barclays Premier League champions Chelsea less than 72 hours later, nodded in the victor with 12 minutes remaining.

You have to feel for Tottenham a bit in this game, to have the season they’ve had so far and then when Chelsea come to town, they’ve just got back from Qarabag.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino said: “We will make sure we will arrive in a good condition to play Chelsea”.
“We had control of the game and had the best chances”.
The North Londoners could probably have done without the 8,000 kilometer-round trip to the Azerbaijan capital just three days before the visit of Chelsea to White Hart Lane. We are in a good position in the table but, like with last season, the most important thing is to finish higher.

Tottenham Hotspur qualified for the last 32 of the Europa League with a 1-0 victory over FC Qarabag this evening thanks to a second half strike from Harry Kane. “Now I am happy I am playing and the team is doing well”.
Qarabag offered a reminder of their threat on the stroke of half-time – the home side breaking at pace only for Dani Quintana’s scuffed effort to be palmed away by Lloris.
“We’ve pretty much outrun most teams this season which has been a vital part of our game”. Costa, if selected, will have to show his qualities as a footballer, rather than his perhaps greater ability as an arch-antagonist if Chelsea are to prevail.
