KANE AND SUFFERING

AS YOU would expect, Harry Kane took it well, unfastening his armband and jogging smartly towards Kyle Walker to hand it over.

But it must have hurt. Being hooked with a good 20 minutes left probably always hurts.

Being hooked when you are the England captain and record scorer – at a stage when your team is hunting a goal – has to be particularly painful.

And what must have hurt Kane most of all is that it was the right call.

In fact, by that point, it was a no-brainer.

It was an obvious shout, even though he had scored the 64th goal of his England career and his 13th in tournament football – a goal that eventually meant Gareth Southgate’s team took away a point their performance did not deserve.

But of all the worrying, errorridden, below-par individual displays in this desperately disappointing England showing, Kane’s was one of the most eye-catching.
