šØšļø England Captain Harry Kane after Englandās loss:
āI donāt think Iāll ever understand what just happened out there, if Iām being honest. Itās really tough to take.
Our whole focus this past week was on stopping Lionel Messi. Every meeting, every session ā it was all about limiting his impact. And in a way, you look at it and think we did⦠we stopped him from scoring.
But thatās the thing with him. Even at 39, itās just unbelievable. You think youāve done enough, and then he goes and produces two assists ā two decisive moments that completely change the game. Thatās the level heās at.
To go from winning the game to losing it in the last seven minutes⦠itās devastating. Absolutely devastating. We were in control, we were so close, and then it just turns like that.
The lads are hurting. Weāre all disappointed because we know how big this was. But sometimes you come up against a player who can change everything in an instant⦠and tonight, that was the difference.ā
