Harry Kane has demonstrated consistent goalscoring across recent major international tournaments for England. During the delayed Euro 2020, he was England’s top scorer, contributing four goals in seven matches as the team reached the final. The 2022 World Cup saw England exit in the quarter-finals following a 2-1 defeat by France, a match in which Kane missed a penalty.
In Euro 2024, despite being substituted in all knockout matches, including after 61 minutes of the final loss to Spain, Kane concluded the tournament as joint top scorer with three goals from seven games. He currently holds the record as England’s highest goalscorer in major tournaments, accumulating 15 goals from 29 appearances. This places him fifth among all-time combined European Championship and World Cup goalscorers, trailing Cristiano Ronaldo and the German trio Miroslav Klose, Gerd Muller, and Jurgen Klinsmann.
Pundits and former players have commented on Kane’s playing style, highlighting his strategic approach, ability to drop deep, and precision in passing and awareness, despite his noted lack of significant pace. Analyses have also suggested a potential for his consistent contributions to the national team to be underappreciated by some observers.
