Harry Kane revealed that belting out Wonderwall with supporters after England's victory over Croatia ranks among his 'favourite ever moments' in a Three Lions shirt. The 32-year-old captain scored twice in the Group L opener, matching Gary Lineker's 10 World Cup goals record as England kicked off their 2026 campaign in style.

Manager Thomas Tuchel is determined to maintain the bond between fans and players that Gareth Southgate cultivated during his tenure. Southgate's era delivered semi-final runs at the 2018 World Cup and finals appearances at Euro 2021 and Euro 2024, restoring pride after years of underachievement. Kane, alongside Jordan Pickford and John Stones, represents the core trio who experienced that journey.

Kane senses genuine excitement within the current setup, describing a 'freshness' that feels different from previous cycles. The veteran striker noted how the squad spends time together while maintaining competitive edge in training. He emphasized the positive atmosphere: 'Whoever plays will play and I'll be ready to come on and make a difference when I get my turn.'

England's next assignment comes against Ghana in Boston on Tuesday evening, where they'll look to build momentum ahead of what could prove a defining summer for English football.
