Kane saves England as USA, Belgium reach last 16

Create us preferred on Google England's forward #09 Harry Kane celebrates after winning the 2026 World Cup round of 32 fit football between England and the Democratic Republic of Congo at the Atlanta Stadium in Atlanta on July 1, 2026. — AFP LOS ANGELES: Harry Kane scored twice to rescue England from the brink of a calamitous World Cup exit as co-hosts the United States swept into the last 16 with victory in their primetime clash against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Another breathless day of World Cup measure kicked off with England captain Kane scoring twice in the last 15 minutes to help the Three Lions snatch a 2-1 prevail against the Democratic Republic of Congo at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Belgium simultaneously pulled off an incredible comeback against Senegal, recovering from a 2-0 shortfall with four minutes of normal time remaining to prevail 3-2 after extra-time in Seattle.

The Belgians will now play the United States in the last 16 next week after the hosts overcame the sending off of star striker Folarin Balogun to defeat Bosnia 2-0 in Santa Clara, California.

England, simultaneously, are now preparing for a daunting tour to grab on Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico Urban on Sunday following Kane's late display in Atlanta.
