Saka said about Kane: “Harry Kane is like inevitable you know, he was always going to score goals, I was never worried about that.
“He’s been exceptional for us. He is like the glue of the team the way he links up attacks.
“I think he has a few assists already so it’s not like he isn’t doing anything for us. So I knew he would get his goal and he showed unbelievable composure, because it took him so long to strike the ball, but he managed to do what Harry Kane does and put the ball in the back of the net.”
World-class footballer
In our view, Harry Kane is a world-class striker and is a key figure for Tottenham Hotspur and England.
Kane is a proven goalscorer who could end up as the top scorer in the Premier League of all time.
It is also a matter of time before the Tottenham striker becomes the top scorer of all time for England.
The striker did not score in the World Cup group stage in Qatar, but he did create chances and provided assists.
And now the Tottenham striker has scored in the knockout rounds.
England will take on France in the quarter-finals of the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
For Gareth Southgate’s side to win against the reigning champions, Kane will have to be on top of his game.
