England striker Harry Kane scored twice in the round of 16 World Cup match against DR Congo, securing a 2-1 victory for his team. These goals brought Kane’s total World Cup tally to 13, equaling the record set by the legendary French forward Just Fontaine, who scored the same number in a single tournament back in 1958.
With this achievement, the Bayern Munich player now shares sixth place on the all-time World Cup top scorers list alongside Fontaine. Ahead of them are Gerd Müller with 14 goals, Ronaldo with 15, Miroslav Klose with 16, followed by Kylian Mbappé with 17, and Lionel Messi leading with 18 goals. In the race for the Golden Boot at the 2026 World Cup, Kane, with 5 goals, has caught up to Erling Haaland.
