Harry Kane

Why wouldn’t Kane take it, he put the first one in the top corner, scores this one to become Englands all time record scorer, regularly takes penalties … course he should take it
I’m not sure who you’d have take it. If Kane’s the player for the first because of his ability and mentality, who would you have on the second?
 

Same for me here, for a top class striker to not hit the target is criminal. I said at the time it should be another player taken it as I think with facing his team mate put more pressure on him. He was big enough to stand up and take take it he should be big enough to take the shit that's coming his way
There's not a chance he lets anyone else take that second one mate, nor should he.

Every third goal he scores for England is a penalty, not unreasonable to expect him to score.
 
There’s something definitely wrong with English approaches to penalties. We seem to place more emphasis on “who has the balls” as opposed to who can mentally cope. Personally, I would have had someone else take the second - Difficult I know if Kane wants it.

Gabby Agbonlahor should have took it IMO.

Really? You’d take it off one of the best and most feared penalty takers on the planet?

When he was waiting to take it I did think that it was probably going through his mind that it would make him record scorer.
At least someone else didn't miss.
Saved them a bit of grief.

Eh did you read my post? Of course he takes the second, silly debate really, the only thing is he missed the target, that’s his only fault.

You don’t take it off him. Please read properly Peter. I stated it’s difficult if Kane wanted it. Personally, under the circumstances, I would have changed the penalty taker. Last 10 minutes, mentality is more important than track record.
