Harry Kane sends France warning after emphatically ending World Cup 2022 goal drought

Harry Kane described his first goal of Qatar 2022 as “perfect” and then looked forward to a “battle” with France as Gareth Southgate’s men booked their place in the World Cup quarter-finals.

Kane thumped home England’s second goal just before half-time after Jordan Henderson opened the scoring in a thumping win over Senegal which was completed by Bukayo Saka's third just before the hour mark.

“The ball sat up nicely, the connection was perfect,” smiled Kane, after breaking his tournament duck. “I’m a striker, whenever I score, I’m happy.
