What’s the story?
Harry Kane captained the England football team that put in the nation’s best showing at a World Cup finals in 50 odd years. However, the Golden Boot winner who scored 6 goals at the World Cup is disappointed with his performances in Russia according to Mauricio Pochettino, if a report from the Sun is to be believed.
In case you didn’t know…
The Three Lions exceeded expectations and made it to the semifinal of the World Cup. Harry Kane led the way scoring 6 goals. However, one could argue that he wasn’t at his very best as most of his goals were tap-ins or scored from the spot.
His inability to find the net in the semifinal cost England a chance to meet France in the final for the biggest prize in world football.
The heart of the matter
“After he came back from Russia he came to see us at the training ground for five hours.
“I said to him congratulations and he said: ‘No, gaffer. I am really disappointed, I should have scored more goals.’
“That is why I love him. I love his energy and desire.
“For him, it is not enough to finish fourth in the World Cup or second or third in the Premier League.
“It is so Harry.”
