ESPN · 1h ago

Harry Kane scored twice in the final 15 minutes to complete a comeback win for England, who trailed DR Congo after a first-half strike from Brian Cipenga in the tournament debutants' first-ever knockout match. Substitute Anthony Gordon set up both of Kane's goals, and the captain's double marks the first World Cup knockout brace by an England player since Gary Lineker in 1990. England now advances to face co-hosts Mexico in the round of 16.
