JAKARTA - The England national team advanced to the quarter-finals after winning 3-0 from Senegal. One of the three goals was scored by their captain, Harry Kane.
Kane became the eighth player to score for England during his 2022 World Cup appearance in Qatar. Before Kane, the team's goal intake was distributed by Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka with 3 goals.
Next up are Jude Bellingham, Raheem Sterling, Jack Grealish, Phil Foden and Jordan Henderson and Harry Kane who each have one goal.
England coach Gareth Southgate then praised how the team's performance continued to show improvement. He certainly likes the distribution of goals from the Three Lions evenly distributed.
"The quality of the team's movement is extraordinary and the solution is cruel," Southgate said as quoted by Reuters on Monday, December 5.
As far as appearing in the 2022 World Cup until the last 16, the England national team has scored 12 goals. That number is the same as when they were trying to get to the semifinals at the 2018 World Cup.
The total goal in the last 16 this time was also one point ahead of the team that presented the 1966 World Cup trophy, with a total of 11 goals during the competition.
The number can clearly continue to grow if the Three Lions continue to advance to the next rounds. In the quarter-finals later, England will face France.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane has now surpassed Gary Lineker's achievements in England's top scorer list in major tournaments. Now, the Tottenham player is eyeing Wayne Rooney's position as the player with the most goals in the Three Lions squad.
