Harry Kane and His Best Moments Playing for England

Harry Kane has built one of the great England careers, and it began in March 2015, when he scored just 79 seconds after coming on as a substitute against Lithuania at Wembley.

His breakthrough at a major tournament came at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

He scored twice against Tunisia, including a stoppage time winner, and grabbed a hat trick in the 6 – 1 win over Panama.

He finished with six goals, won the Golden Boot, and became the first Englishman since Gary Lineker in 1986 to take the award.

He also scored a penalty against Colombia in the last 16, and converted his spot kick in the shootout as England reached the quarter-finals.

At Euro 2020, he scored against Germany in the last 16 and then netted the decisive rebound in extra time against Denmark, sending England to their first men’s major final since 1966.

Italy beat them on penalties in the final.

In March 2023, he became England’s all time leading goalscorer after a penalty against Italy, passing Wayne Rooney’s record.

At Euro 2024, he scored against the Netherlands in the semi-final and finished as joint top scorer of the tournament with three goals.

He marked his 100th England appearance with two goals in a 2 – 0 win over Finland at Wembley.

Kane’s success represents a major personal achievement after years of establishing himself among the world’s leading forwards. Having previously excelled at Tottenham Hotspur before moving to Germany, he has continued to demonstrate his ability to deliver at the highest level.

Harry Kane Predicts PSG as Slight Favorites Over Arsenal in Champions League Final

Harry Kane, a striker for Bayern Munich, has made predictions about this year’s Champions League final between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal.

They were only able to draw 1-1 with PSG in their semi-final second leg, hence Kane himself was not allowed to participate in the final.

The Bundesliga winners had lost 5-4 in the first leg despite the England captain’s last-ditch equalizer.

According to Kane, PSG will be “slight favorites” when they play Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest.

After they won the league again, Kane focused on winning the domestic double.

“We can win the double,” he said to Sky Sports Germany.

“PSG is a slight favorite in the final, in my opinion.”

UCL: Kane double sinks Chelsea in Munich

Harry Kane scored twice to inspire Bayern Munich to a 3-1 win over Chelsea in their Champions League group stage opener, though the visitors left Germany frustrated after the hosts escaped a potential red card.

Chelsea, returning to the competition after a two-year absence, made a bright start but defensive lapses and wastefulness in front of goal proved costly against a Bayern side unbeaten at home in the group stages since 2013.

Early promise undone by errors

Enzo Maresca’s side had some good time in the first half and could have gone ahead through Enzo Fernández, who miscued from close range after good work by Cole Palmer.

But Bayern struck first when Michael Olise’s cross was deflected into his own net by Trevoh Chalobah.

Moises Caicedo then fouled Kane inside the box, gifting the England striker his 94th Bayern goal in 102 appearances.

Chelsea responded quickly, Palmer combining with Malo Gusto before firing a superb equaliser into the top corner.

Kane decisive after the break

Bayern pressed aggressively in the second half and Robert Sánchez made key saves to deny Kane and Olise.

The breakthrough arrived once more when a Chelsea turnover allowed Kane to collect a loose ball in the area and finish low into the corner for his second of the night.

The strike took Kane’s career tally against Chelsea into double figures.

Chelsea’s frustrations grow

Chelsea thought they had reduced the deficit late on when Palmer converted from Andrey Santos’ pass, but the goal was ruled out for offside.

The Blues were also incensed when Bayern’s Jonathan Tah avoided a second booking for hauling back Joao Pedro, with Maresca shown a yellow card for protesting.

Despite positive spells, Chelsea’s defensive errors and missed chances left them with little to show on their Champions League return.

Bayern, meanwhile, extended their formidable home record and made a strong statement of intent the opening group stage game.

“If I’m scoring goals and we are winning trophies then that will come into question, but it is not really what my focus is on now.
 
“I have always said I never want to retire and feel like I could have done more. That was a big part of the decision-making process to come to Bayern. You want to make sure you’ve pushed yourself to your limits.”
