Gary Lineker insists Harry Kane has 'nothing to be ashamed of' after the Tottenham Hotspur and England striker apologised for missing the decisive penalty in last night's 2-1 defeat against France.
Kane had the chance to level the score at 2-2 and become England's all-time record goalscorer, but fired his second spot-kick of the night over the crossbar as the Three Lions were eliminated from the World Cup at the quarter-final stage. The Spurs man did beat club team-mate Hugo Lloris to cancel out Aurelien Tchouemani's opener, but failed at the second time of asking as Olivier Giroud's header sent the world champions through.
After a wobbly opening 45 minutes, England grew into the occasion and were the far better side after the break. Kane confidently fired home a penalty on 54 minutes and had a chance to draw his side level again after Mason Mount was fouled inside the box.
