Harry Kane was one of the key architects behind England's qualification for the quarter-finals of the 2026 World Cup. Against Mexico, the striker set up Jude Bellingham for a goal before converting a penalty in the Three Lions' thrilling 3-2 victory.

Highly involved throughout, even when his team was down to ten men, the Bayern Munich star let his joy erupt with his teammates after the final whistle. But when it came time for his interview with the BBC, Kane found himself unable to speak normally.

I've lost my voice. It was an incredible match. We had to fight until the very end. I was singing with the team just moments ago, so I almost have no voice left.

A loss of voice that perfectly sums up the intensity of England's qualification.
