England beat Croatia 4-2 as Kane ties World Cup scoring mark
What's new: Marcus Rashford sealed the win, and Harry Kane matched England's World Cup finals scoring record.
England beat Croatia 4-2 in a World Cup 2026 Group L match in the United States, with Harry Kane scoring twice and drawing level with England’s World Cup finals scoring record. Kane converted a retaken early penalty after Dominik Livakovic came off his line, then added a header from a corner. Jude Bellingham also scored, and Marcus Rashford struck late to clinch it after Croatia twice fought back. Martin Baturina scored Croatia’s first, and a second equalizer came after Ivan Perisic’s headed setup. The win came in an open, error-strewn game in which Livakovic still made several important saves to keep Croatia close.
