Goal in injury time lifts England in Cup
Harry Kane scored two goals, including one on a header in injury time, to give England a 2- 1 victory Monday against Tunisia in a Group G game at the World Cup in Volgograd, Russia.
Standing alone at the far post, Kane guided a headed pass from Harry Maguire into the net. He had put England ahead in the 11th minute with a strike from close range after Tunisia goalie Moez Hassen had saved a powerful header from John Stones. Tunisia tied the score when
Ferjani Sassi converted a penalty in the 35th. The penalty was awarded after Kyle Walker caught Fakhreddine Ben Youssef with his arm.
† Romelu Lukaku scored two goals in a six- minute span midway through the second half after Dries Mertens had broken a scoreless tie in the 47th minute, and Belgium earned a 3- 0 victory against Panama in Group G action in Sochi, Russia.
† Andreas Granqvist converted a penalty kick in the 65th minute after a video review determined Viktor Claesson had been fouled in the area, and the goal stood up in Sweden’s 1- 0 victory against South Korea in Group F in Novgorod, Russia.
