England forward Harry Kane shared his feelings after defeating Panama (2:0) in the third round of the group stage of the World Cup 2026. Scoring the ball in this match allowed the forward to set a new national team record for the number of goals at the world championships.

Kane surpassed Gary Lineker's achievement, taking his top scorer at the world championships to 11 goals.

" Even before the start of the tournament, I said that the world championship is the most important tournament in which we take part as professional footballers, so scoring 11 goals is truly proud. It’s important to believe from now on.

I just want to enjoy the whole team together, enjoy the fact that we are looking at the tournament table. I never accept such moments as if they were understandable on their own.. Here’s another miracle, and I’m confident that I won’t be staying at this tournament,” Kane said.

The snowstorm over Panama brought England's settlement first in Group L and reached the playoffs for the World Championship.
