Wayne Rooney sent a touching message to England captain Harry Kane after his penalty miss against France condemned the Three Lions to World Cup heartbreak.
The Tottenham forward was both hero and villain in the Three Lions’ World Cup quarter-final defeat to Didier Deschamps’ men. He first stayed cool to haul England level just after the break after Bukayo Saka had been fouled. That effort - the 53rd of his international career - saw him draw level with Rooney at the top of the Three Lions’ goalscoring charts.
Kane then had the chance to claim the title outright after Olivier Giroud had restored Les Bleus’ lead when England were handed another opportunity from the penalty spot. This time though, Kane could not convert as he blazed his second spot-kick high over Lloris’ crossbar.
