2022 World Cup: Southgate gives updates on Kane, Maguire injuries

Kane

England manager, Gareth Southgate, has given updates on injuries picked up by captain Harry Kane and defender Harry Maguire.

He was speaking after they beat Iran 6-2 on Monday.

There were reasons for concerns when Kane and Maguire picked up second-half knocks.

Kane went down in the 48th minute after a challenge from Iran defender Morteza Pouraliganji. And – after being replaced in the 75th minute – was seen with light ankle strapping on his leg after the match.

Maguire, meanwhile, went down with illness after Taremi scored Iran’s first goal and was replaced immediately by Eric Dier.

Speaking about the defender’s withdrawal, Southgate said: “He felt ill and he had flagged it just before the goal and given the state of the game, he felt there was no point carrying on. Other than that, I haven’t seen anything of concern.

“I think Harry (Kane) is fine. It looked a bad tackle but he carried on in the game and we took him off because he felt there was a moment we could do that.”
