Kane puts England ahead against Croatia with retaken penalty

Harry Kane scored England's opening goal against Croatia with a retaken penalty on June 13, 2021, giving his team a 1-0 lead. The initial penalty kick was saved by Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livaković, but the spot-kick was ordered to be retaken because Livaković was judged to have been off his goal line before the ball was kicked. Kane successfully converted the second attempt, finding the back of the net. This goal marked a significant moment in the Euro 2020 group stage match, which was played at Wembley Stadium in London. The match was part of Group D, which also included Scotland and the Czech Republic. The penalty was awarded after Raheem Sterling was fouled inside the box. Livaković, known for his penalty-saving abilities, had initially denied Kane, but the subsequent retake proved decisive.
