⚽ Kane breaks Messi, Ronaldo’s record in England draw

England striker Harry Kane surpassed each Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo following his fiftieth worldwide objective in simply 71 matches. 

Jonas Hofmann scored the opening objective for Germany within the fiftieth minute earlier than Kane spared England’s blushes with a late penalty. Kane grew to become the second England participant after Wayne Rooney to succeed in half a ton of targets and the 72nd man in soccer historical past to succeed in the landmark notably faster than Messi and Ronaldo. 

Messi reached the landmark after 107 matches whereas Ronaldo wanted 114 to take action. Talking after the sport, Kane expressed his thrill at having racked up his half-century.

“A very nice feeling, you recognize. I had a few early possibilities within the recreation. Clearly, the primary one over the bar after which Neuer made a superb save for the second,” Kane stated.

“I believed perhaps it was a kind of days however we stored going and doubtless performed our greatest soccer within the final half-hour of the sport. Bodily, we have been actually robust and good to get the objective and only a disgrace that we couldn’t get the objective on the finish.”

The draw leaves England rooted on the backside of their Nations League group, with only one level earned from two video games.
