England captain Harry Kane produced a brilliant solo goal to inspire a 2-1 comeback win over DR Congo and book the Three Lions' place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 16. With England trailing until the 75th minute, Kane scored twice, including a sensational 86th-minute strike after dribbling past several defenders before firing into the top corner. The goal is already being hailed as one of the tournament's best. Kane also reached 13 career FIFA World Cup goals, moving past Brazilian legend Pelé's tally of 12. England will now face co-hosts Mexico in the Round of 16.
