Kane becomes the first player in World Cup history to score and concede a penalty in the same match

I really don’t know what to say—just sit tight! He’s a three-time Premier League Golden Boot winner, World Cup Golden Boot winner, UEFA Nations League Golden Boot winner, IFFHS World’s Best Top Goal Scorer, Tottenham Hotspur’s all-time leading scorer, England’s all-time top international goalscorer, the Bundesliga single-season foreign player goal record holder, the talismanic striker behind England’s 2018 World Cup semifinal run, a foundational pillar of Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga title triumphs, the match-winner in the FA Cup final, the pivotal striker in promotion from the Championship, a two-time Bundesliga champion, DFB-Pokal winner, UEFA Super Cup winner, and FIFA Club World Cup winner. He was Tottenham’s unwavering focal point up front for a decade—a traditional, academy-raised center forward who matured steadily through Kane’s youth system; honed his craft across multiple loan spells early in his career; and ultimately redefined the modern all-around number nine. After a high-profile transfer, he shouldered Bayern Munich’s attacking burden at the Allianz Arena: an immovable target man with rock-solid hold-up play in the box; an unanswerable finisher with lethal instincts inside the area; a master of long-range strikes and free kicks; a deep-lying playmaker who links midfield and orchestrates attacks; a precise crosser when drifting wide; and a consistent match-winner in major cup finals. He’s an indispensable spearhead in Gareth Southgate’s England revival—and the undisputed leader of England’s golden generation of forwards—the most reliable goalscoring machine since Wayne Rooney. After years of trophy-less perseverance, he finally claimed silverware with a European elite club, remaining perennially atop the world’s center-forward hierarchy: the Allianz Arena’s unstoppable number nine.

I think this headline can actually be interpreted as praise for Kane, since only he—by actively defending and tracking back all the way to his own penalty area—had the opportunity to commit the foul that led to the penalty. This, in fact, highlights Kane’s all-around ability and proactive mindset as a center forward, underscoring his commitment to defensive duties.

If Bolivia hosted the World Cup, would everyone suffer from altitude sickness and be unable to play?

This penalty was clearly a “payback” — England’s should have been a red card and a penalty.

World Cup underwear theft—was signing the Declaration of Independence also a historic first?

Lao Kai can play as a defensive midfielder and does contribute defensively—though he did concede a penalty through a defensive error.

Laughed to death

It was no easy feat for him to appear in that position—though he was a familiar sight in the league last season.

Hmph.

Kane’s World Cup is over—you’ll pick up “Gouji” (a Shandong card game) instantly when you visit Shandong; just give me a call and I’ll deal and pass cards!

This year’s champion is England—lazy!

2015–16 Premier League season: Leicester City 2–2 West Ham United at home. Andy Carroll equalized for West Ham with a penalty, then Aaron Cresswell scored a superb goal to put them ahead; late in the match, Carroll conceded a penalty, and Leonardo Ulloa converted it to secure a dramatic draw.

His physical reactions were sluggish—there was even an incident at Bayern where he retreated into the opponent’s penalty area and delayed his foot movement, resulting in a penalty kick. It was a case of good intentions backfiring, but it wasn’t a big issue in this match.

stinking stats

Hahaha, a very interesting record.

I was initially supporting Germany,now I have given my support to England. Tuchel is a genius

So what?!

Doubao is still Qwen.

Has there ever been a case where a player first caused an opponent to receive a red card and then received a straight red card themselves? I’ll go ask Yuanbao…

It’s noteworthy that Kane tracks back deeply in defense—a rare and commendable trait.

It feels déjà vu—has this happened before?

Next, Kane—drink this cup of poison…
