With time running out, Cristian Romero handled in the area to allow Riyad Mahrez to equalise in stoppage time equaliser from the spot, but there was time for another twist.
Kane beat Kyle Walker to head home in the fifth minute of added time to earn Spurs their first double over defending Premier League champions.
