Not only for Bayern Munich, but also for the English national team, the 32-year-old striker brings a virtual guarantee of goals. In the 4-2 opening victory over Croatia, Kane scored twice and added another goal in the 2-0 win against Panama. With this, the Bundesliga top scorer overtook Gary Lineker and is now the new all-time leading scorer in World Cup history for the Three Lions.
Bayern's 'Mr. Nonchalant' enchanted the football world in the group stage with elegance and efficiency and was described by none other than teammate Kylian Mbappé as "the player of today and tomorrow." His four assists in the preliminary round contributed to the fact that co-favourites France remained undefeated with three wins.
