SPARE KANE BLAME GAME

GARETH SOUTHGATE does not blame Tottenham for playing Harry Kane and says he cannot worry about lastminute injuries.

Spurs boss Antonio Conte says England’s top scorer and captain (above) is running on empty ahead of the World Cup.

But Three Lions boss Southgate said: “There’s nothing I can do about it. We can do nothing about injuries.

“I empathise with the club managers at this time. Of course, we would like it to be different but, if I am Antonio, I have to win football matches, and it is the same with every other manager. They employ the players and we borrow them.
