It’s co-hosts Mexico v England at the great Estadio Azteca on July 5th in the round of sixteen after Harry Kane’s brace rescued Thomas Tuchel’s side at the Atlanta Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Harry Kane scored a header in the 75th minute, assisted by Anthony Gordon, to equalize for England after DR Congo took the lead with a goal from Brian Cipenga in the 7th minute.
DR Congo defended well and controlled the game until Kane’s equalizer. However, Kane struck again with another perfect shot, giving England a 2-1 lead.
Historically, England’s Three Lions have not come from behind to win a World Cup game after trailing at halftime since the 1966 final against West Germany.
But under coach Thomas Tuchel, things feel different. Kane scored again, hitting the ball into the roof of the net after receiving a pass from Anthony Gordon and moving into the area. This goal marks Kane’s 13th in World Cup finals and his fifth in this North American campaign.
England’s next match is against co-hosts Mexico at the stadium where legends like Pele and Diego Maradona once played.
