It hurts and it’ll take some time to get over it – Harry Kane on England’s defeat in World Cup

England striker, Harry Kane has admitted that their loss in the game against France is a big blow to the England national team.

In a tweet he noted that the defeat “hurts and it’ll take some time to get over it.”

England’s dream of winning the World Cup was short lived after they were kicked out of the tournament by France. The 2:1 defeat sent the Three Lions home.

Harry Kane scored one penalty to equalise after Aurelien Tchouameni’s opener, but after Olivier Giroud put Les Bleus back in front, Kane spurned his second chance from the spot to send the Three Lions crashing out at the quarter-final stage.

The England captain was distraught after the game and accepted responsibility for the miss, but his manager Gareth Southgate backed his striker for big performances along the way.

Absolutely gutted. We’ve given it everything and it’s come down to a small detail which I take responsibility for. There’s no hiding from it, it hurts and it’ll take some time to get over it but that’s part of sport,” Harry Kane tweeted.
