Though some footballers were playing in the Champions League tonight, the Tottenham forward was presenting a BRIT Award.
So, while Manchester United were playing Sevilla tonight, Spurs had a night off, meaning that Harry Kane could give BRIT Awards viewers the awkward moment that nobody asked for.
For reasons that are only known to the organisers, he appeared alongside Camila Cabello to give Kendrick Lemar a gong and needless to say he didn’t look comfortable doing it.
However, everyone was talking about the hilarious intro Kane was given by comedian Jack Whitehall.

“Our next presenters are a pop superstar and a Tottenham striker,” said Arsenal-supporting Whitehall.
He added: “[This means] the BRIT award he hands over tonight will probably be the only trophy he gets his hands on this season… it’s Harry Kane and Camila Cabello.”
Burn.
Naturally, people on social media were loving it.

No idea why Harry Kane is presenting a BRIT award, but crying with laughter at the presenter's comment that it will be the only trophy he gets his hands on this year
