Qatar World Cup: Kane's Disappointment Behind Him - Southgate

England manager Gareth Southgate believes captain Harry Kane has put his World Cup experience behind him.

Kane missed a decisive penalty in the quarter-final defeat to France in Qatar, continuing the nation's long wait for international glory.

The forward would have broken Wayne Rooney's international record had he scored the penalty, as well as potentially guiding England into the last four, but he fired his attempt over the bar and the Three Lions lost 2-1.

Speaking about Kane, Southgate said: "We've seen that with his performances and goals for his club that he has put it behind him. He knows he's going to have added motivation tomorrow [Wednesday] night to come back and show everybody what he is about again in an England shirt. For us that is a good position. It's always difficult to compare across ages, there a lot who I didn't see because I wasn't alive. But because of his goalscoring alone, that puts him in the upper echelons of that group. He provides so much more for the team than that, his quality of passing, his vision, his touch, he's an outstanding player and we're very fortunate to have him."
