Spurs’ Kane confident of ending goal drought
LONDON: Striker Harry Kane is confident he will rediscover his knack for scoring goals after failing to find the back of the net for Tottenham Hotspur or England
LONDON: Striker Harry Kane is confident he will rediscover his knack for scoring goals after failing to find the back of the net for Tottenham Hotspur or England since May.
The 23-year-old last struck a goal in England’s friendly win over Turkey and has not opened his account in the Premier League this season.
“Unfortunately there was a lot of talk last year and I managed to prove a lot of people wrong, so people will talk this year as well,” Kane told British media.
“I am confident in my ability. I know that if I continue doing what I am doing the goals will come, that is all I can do,” he added.
Tottenham, who have started their league campaign with five points from three games, next visit bottom club Stoke City on Saturday.
40-TEAM WC NOT A CERTAINTY: INFANTINO
GENEVA: FIFA president Gianni Infantino is not yet certain that the 2026 World Cup finals would feature 40 teams even though he personally favours an expanded tournament, he said on Tuesday.
Infantino also said he would be happy for several countries to share the hosting of the World Cup, describing it as much a “social event for the whole world” as a global sporting competition.
