Kane using Qatar penalty pain as fuel for England ambition
Harry Kane has said that his penalty heartbreak against France at the last World Cup has changed him as a player and given him extra motivation to lead England to glory at the tournament next summer.
The captain missed from the spot in the 84th minute of the quarterfinal in Qatar in 2022 as England slipped to a 2-1 defeat - a moment Kane describes as the lowest of his career, worse than losing any club final. The Bayern Munich striker lost three of them with his previous club, Tottenham, including the Champions League final in 2019. His response to the failure against France was to work at introducing greater variation to his penalty-taking technique, principally a stutter run where he waits for the goalkeeper to move before striking the ball. The results have been spectacular.
Kane went on a run of 31 successful conversions for club and country after France, the sequence broken at the start of this season when he missed for Bayern in the German Cup against Wehen Wiesbaden. Since then, he has scored six in a row, the latest coming in England's 5-0 win against Latvia in Riga on Tuesday. The result secured qualification for the World Cup finals, which will be hosted by the US, Canada and Mexico.
