Why England and Tottenham have major worry over Harry Kane ankle injury amid long-term issue

Tottenham and England striker Harry Kane is an injury doubt ahead of the Three Lions' second World Cup Group B match against the USA on Friday, November 25.

Kane failed to score against Iran but grabbed himself two assists as England picked up a convincing 6-2 win against Iran to move top of Group B. The Three Lions had to be patient but soon found an opener through Jude Bellingham who announced himself on the world stage with a fine header.

Arsenal's Bukayo Saka and Chelsea's Raheem Sterling threatened throughout the game with the former scoring twice either side of Sterling's finish to make it 4-0 in the 62nd minute. Gareth Southgate utilised the wealth of attacking talent at his disposal to freshen things up with 20 minutes to go as substitutes Marcus Rashford and Jack Grealish added a fifth and sixth goal to complete the rout.
