Harry Kane Becomes England’s Leading World Cup Scorer in 4-2 Win Over Croatia

Harry Kane opened England’s campaign with two goals against Croatia, moving past Gary Lineker to become England’s all-time top scorer at the World Cup. Kane struck first with a penalty after Dominik Livakovic was penalised for leaving his line early. He then headed home from a Declan Rice corner to put the Three Lions ahead 2-1 at the break. Croatia responded twice, but England regained control when Jude Bellingham drove forward and finished clinically. Marcus Rashford sealed the win five minutes from time with a composed finish. While Kane and Bellingham impressed up front, manager Thomas Tuchel will want to tighten the defence before England’s next Group L fixture against Ghana.
