Striker claimed share of Golden BootReplaced in semi-final & finalTwo caps short of reaching 100GettyWHAT HAPPENED?

The Bayern Munich striker, who carried a knock into his latest tournament appearance, scored three goals and claimed a share of the Golden Boot on European Championship duty. He helped the Three Lions to another final appearance, but suffered the same fate as back in 2021.

England slipped to a dramatic 2-1 defeat against Spain, with Kane once again replaced by Ollie Watkins during the second half. Questions have been asked of his contribution to the collective cause on a regular basis, with the 30-year-old frontman refusing to stay up top and run beyond opposition defenders.

WHAT KANE SAID

Kane is, however, determined to start righting a few wrongs at international level – while opening his own personal trophy account – and has said on social media: “Heartbroken we couldn’t achieve what we worked so hard to. It was a long tough tournament and I’m so proud of the boys and staff for getting to the final. Ultimately we fell short of our target and will have to live with that but as we always do we will pick ourselves up, dust ourselves down and be ready to fight again in an England shirt. Thank you to all the fans that believed in us and supported us to the very end!”

WHAT NEXT?

Kane is England’s all-time leading scorer, with 66 goals recorded through 98 appearances. He will be hoping to become a centurion when figuring in Nations League plans, with it yet to be determined whether Gareth Southgate will be staying on to oversee that campaign and qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
