2026 FIFA WC: Kane's Brace Helps England Overcome Congo 2-1, Seal Last 16 Spot
Skipper Harry Kane: Skipper Harry Kane led from the front and scored twice to help England fight back from a goal deficit at half-time to overcome Congo DR 2-1 in a Round of 32 match at the Atlanta Stadium on Wednesday and set up a last 16 clash with Mexico.
This is the first time in the World Cup since 1986 that the Three Lions have come back to win a match after trailing by a goal at half-time, surviving a huge scare to progress to the Round of 16.
Kane found the back of the net in the 75th minute with a header and then unleashed a blistering shot into the roof of the net in the 86th minute as England showed resilience to recover from a goal down after Brian Cipenga scored his first international goal for Congo DR ahead in the seventh minute.
