England’s response was an explosion of celebration and huge relief, as a mostly dreadful display was turned into a stunning victory by their brilliant captain.
The celebration was in the last 16 for that place.
It will be Tuchel’s relief that he was unable to survive such embarrassment, regardless of his contract extension.
A relief to the Football Association who put their faith in the German and gave him the sole mission of winning this World Cup.
And it was all about Harry Kane.
Kane attracts politeness and respect like a magnet. He deserved every bit of it – as evidenced by the statistics left behind by his latest masterpiece.
The race for the Golden Boot is between Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi, and Tuchel has five goals in this World Cup, saying “they are all sharks, they smell blood”.
Tuchel added: “At this World Cup, these big guys look at each other? Then they don’t go with me, then I score, then I make a hat-trick, then go.” What’s going on? Crazy.
“Harry is great, he’s our captain. He’s our leader. He’s decided football matches with unbelievable finishes and he’s done it here twice. The second was a fantastic goal.”
Kane has now moved ahead of Pele to sixth on the all-time World Cup goalscoring list with 13 goals and has now scored 84 goals for England. This means he is tied for 9th on the all-time international goalscoring list with Hungarian Ferenc Puskas.
In the year Only Lineker scored more goals for England with 6.
Most surprising of all, he scored 72 goals in 62 games for his club and country this season, 11 for England and 61 for Bayern Munich.
