In the 68th minute, Kane made a long pass for Alphonso Davies to escape down the left wing. The Canadian star calmly dribbled the ball before firing a powerful shot into the far corner, not giving Andriy Lunin a chance to block.

Fate chose Joselu as the home team’s hero, when he came on from the bench and shone brightly with 2 goals at the most important moment of the match, thereby earning him a ticket to the finals. for Real Madrid.
