On Saturday evening, England lost to reigning world champions Spain. Harry Kane could have helped his team snatch a draw. But he missed his penalty. He has regrets.

Despite a strong performance on Saturday evening, England were beaten by Spain (2-3) at Wembley in the Nations League. A goalscorer but also the taker of a missed penalty, Harry Kane expressed his regrets after the clash.

"As I have already said, we had reached a good level at the World Cup, but we had not managed to maintain the same tempo for 90 minutes. The assessment is probably similar for this match. We had some good moments, we had not played this well for a very long time, and this is the level we know we can reach. We were facing the world champions, the European champions, and we held our own against them," the England captain told the press.
