Kane's Late Goals Propel England Past DR Congo in World Cup

In a World Cup knockout match, Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane scored two crucial goals in the last 15 minutes, leading England to a 2-1 victory over DR Congo. DR Congo initially took the lead in the 7th minute with a low shot from forward Brian Cipenga that beat England's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

However, England's coach Thomas Tuchel made two vital substitutions, bringing on Anthony Gordon and Bukayo Saka, which changed the momentum of the match. Kane reacted quickly to a cross from Gordon, scoring with a powerful header in the 75th minute.

He then doubled England's lead 11 minutes later, collecting a pass from Gordon and striking a bullet shot into the top corner. This marked Kane's fifth goal of the campaign, placing him joint third in the scoring chart behind Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé.

England maintained a 100% record against African teams in knockout rounds, while DR Congo faced elimination.
