Having fasted on goals at Euro 2020, Harry Kane remembers the 2018 World Cup

By db-admin

DBasia.news – England national team striker, Harry Kane, opened up after having difficulty scoring goals at the 2020 European Cup. The spearhead of Tottenham Hotspur raised his performance at the 2018 World Cup.

Harry Kane had a goal famine in the group stage of the 2020 European Cup. From three matches, Kane failed to gain a goal.

Then, Kane’s goal taps began to open in the knockout stages. Kane scored against Germany, Ukraine and Denmark. Now, Kane’s goal record has reached four.

Kane feels there are similarities between his performances at Euro 2020 and the 2018 World Cup. Two years ago, Kane became the top scorer after scoring six goals.

“We have broken down barriers along the way. We started this tournament with the aim of winning it. We have that opportunity tomorrow,” Kane explained on the official Euro 2020 website.

“It’s probably a matter of energy. I feel like I’m at the World Cup. It was a great start against Tunisia, scoring a goal in the last minute.”

“Panama was the same. I had a great game. I scored a hat-trick. There’s a lot of talk about mentality. It’s not just physical, I feel mentally lost a little bit towards the end,” Kane said.

“Going into this stage is more experience. It’s just a matter of not getting too carried away whether I score goals or not.”

Kane is more confident going into the final. The striker assesses the experience of English players are more than in the 2018 World Cup.

“I think it’s just part of the curve of playing in big tournaments and I’m getting that experience. Hopefully, I have enough skills to get the job done tomorrow.”
