Slovakia’s veteran defender Jan Durica has claimed that England’s late 1-0 win in the 2018 football World Cup qualifier in Trnava on Sunday was fixed and they “might have played more than” their opponents.
Slovakia held on until practically the last kick, when Adam Lallana won it for England on the occasion of Sam Allardyce’s first game at the helm.
“I put pressure on myself to score goals”. It’s what makes and breaks you as a player.
“I am using his experience to its maximum and encouraging him to play very well, which I thought he did”.
” I’m playing on the pitch for England”. “We are trying to fit him in, but he’s not a midfield player for me”.
The Tottenham striker was on set-piece duty for England in the Euro 2016 draw with Russian Federation, never to return to the quadrant again, but his (to be honest, not even uniquely bad) deliveries have become a bit of a running joke.
“The ankle is okay now”, he said.
‘He is spraying a few balls around, but I don’t think he’s being very effective.
‘I don’t think he’s a striker anymore, ‘ Shilton told BBC Scotland.
Kane revealed that he has been the butt of a number of jokes after he was seen taking corners for Roy Hodgson’s side during Euro 2016 before captain Wayne Rooney took it upon himself to resume the task.
“It’s obviously a laugh and a joke now”.
“It has (become a talking point) now, on social media. Sometimes you’ve just got to stick it out until the last minute and thankfully we got the goal”.
