It was a tough watch for England fans but thanks to the heroics of Harry Kane the Three Lions are through to the World Cup round of 16 after coming back from a goal down to beat the Democratic Republic of the Congo 2-1 in Atlanta.
An all-time shock was on the cards when the underdogs took the lead after just seven minutes through Brian Cipenga. However, skipper Kane stepped up with two late goals as England set up a last-16 tie against co-hosts Mexico.
Bayern Munich striker Kane equalised on 75 minutes when he headed in Anthony Gordon’s cross. Eleven minutes later, he then scored a wonderful winner with a powerful shot into the top corner.
