England’s Harry Kane shared that singing ‘Wonderwall’ with fans in Dallas was a cherished World Cup moment for him. Following a remarkable 4-2 victory against Croatia, the players expressed gratitude to the supporters with a lap of honor at the 70,000-capacity Dallas stadium.
Kane, aged 32, emphasized the emotional connection with fans during the rendition of ‘Wonderwall,’ acknowledging the mutual significance of such moments. He also mentioned receiving encouraging voice notes from football legend David Beckham, commending him on reaching 115 caps, a feat only matched by a few elite players.
Reflecting on his achievements, Kane expressed pride in equaling Beckham’s caps record and reaching 10 World Cup goals, on par with Gary Lineker. He lauded Beckham’s enduring influence as a role model even after his retirement from professional play.
Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, 32, paid tribute to the fans’ support and anticipated increased backing in the upcoming group matches. He highlighted the synergy between players and fans, aiming to create more memorable experiences together.
The World Cup organizers selected ‘Chase the Sun’ by Planet Funk as England’s official post-match song, a choice that resonated well with the team. Pickford humorously referenced the celebratory atmosphere reminiscent of the World Darts Championship.
As the tournament progresses, the English squad remains focused on uniting with their supporters to create lasting memories and deliver exceptional performances on the field.
