ONE of the most talked about points during the ongoing Euro 2020 has been the form of England captain Harry Kane. Despite scoring 33 times in 49 appearances for Tottenham last season, Kane has not managed to replicate the same kind of form for his country. He has managed only one shot on target in the three group games. But this might change. England next face an inconsistent Germany at Wembley on Tuesday in their Last-16 tie. The Germans have shown defensive frailties, having conceded five goals in three matches. England suffered a heartbreaking loss to Germany at the same venue in 1996. And If England are to avoid the same fate, Kane will have to lead from the front to cap a special win for his country with a special goal.
