Kane rescues England with brace to defy obstinate Tunisia

Harry Kane has struck at the death to give England all three points in its opening World Cup match against Tunisia, having been frustrated for so long in a 2-1 win.

Kane opened the scoring early in the first half, pouncing on a rebound to score from close range, only for Kyle Walker to gift Tunisia an equalising penalty.

With Tunisia defending resolutely, England looked like it would be undeservedly frustrated, only for Kane to score his second in the first minute of injury time, again from close range, as England breathed a collective sigh of relief.

More to come.
