Harry Kane sent brutal penalty feedback as Lionel Messi shows Tottenham ace 'how it's done'

Fans have ridiculed Harry Kane for his penalty miss against France in the World Cup quarter-final after Lionel Messi's effort from 12-yards versus Croatia. The Tottenham striker was subject to great criticism after he blazed a spot-kick over the bar against teammate Hugo Lloris.

Kane, who had netted a penalty earlier in the fixture, failed to equalise for the Three Lions and a place in the semi-finals slipped from the team's grasp. As if often the case on social media, he was mocked for his misplaced effort, though things did die down fairly quickly.

That was until Messi dispatched an excellent penalty into the top-right corner to hand Argentina the lead over Croatia. Kane was quickly thrown back into the spotlight by fans, with supporters taking to social media to ridicule the Spurs and England captain once again, telling Kane to 'take notes' and learn from the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner.
