FIFA WC: 'Stopping Harry Kane Will Be France's Biggest Challenge,' Says Gurpreet Singh
Stopping Harry Kane: India goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu believes stopping England captain Harry Kane will be France's biggest tactical challenge when the two European heavyweights meet in the FIFA World Cup 2026 third-place play-off.
Sandhu believes that Kane's ability to influence games beyond his goals makes him England's biggest attacking weapon.
"If Harry Kane starts, he'll be England's biggest threat. His ability to drop into midfield, link play and create space for runners makes him extremely difficult to defend against. That's exactly how England created problems in the semi-final, and France's centre-backs will have to decide whether to follow him or hold their shape. Getting that balance right will be one of the biggest tactical battles of the match," said Sandhu, who is part of Zee5 FIFA WC 2026 expert panel.
