FIFA World Cup: Ahead of England's Group L game against Ghana at the FIFA World Cup 2026 at the Boston Stadium on Wednesday, Declan Rice admitted that it's been an "honour" to play alongside Harry Kane, calling the skipper one of those players he feels fortunate to share the pitch with.
Kane's brace helped Thomas Tuchel's side get their campaign off to a perfect start with a 4-2 win over Croatia and increased his international tally to an incredible 81 goals in 115 appearances. He also reached the same number of international caps of his childhood hero David Beckham after making his 115th appearance.
He now has the opportunity to move beyond Beckham’s total and further cement his place in the national team’s history in the match against Ghana. Rice, who has played with Kane since making his debut in 2019, has spoken glowingly about the striker and how he helps lead the squad in his role as skipper.
