Harry Kane’s England football team will take on Iran in a politically-charged FIFA World Cup 2022 Group B clash at the Khalifa International Stadium in Qatar on Monday (November 21). We are just away from kick-off in this politically-charged contest. England and their fans will be hoping to win the World Cup title for the first time after 1966, nearly 50 years back after finishing runners-up in UEFA Euro Championships to champions Italy.
Kane, who won the Golden Boot for scoring six goals as England reached the semifinals in the FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russia, has currently scored 51 goals from 75 appearances for England. The Tottenham Hotspur striker now needs just two goals to match Rooney’s 53 international goals and many are expecting him to equal or surpass that mark against Iran.
“He is a goal-scorer. If England goes far in this tournament, it is going to be because of Harry Kane. I hope he scores those goals because England needs them if they have to win. I hope he does, but I do not think it will be tomorrow (Monday),” said Rooney on the VISA Match Centre show on Sports 18.

The match will be held in the shadow of UK-Iran politics and England team will take the knee with Kane wearing the ‘One Love’ armband. England have knelt before games since 2020, initially in solidarity with protests over George Floyd's death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer and then in support of equality.
In second match of the day on Monday, Sadio Mane-less Senegal will face Virgil van Dijk’s Netherlands in a Group A clash. The Dutch claim to be serious contenders for the World Cup title this year and will face early examination of that claim when they face African champions Senegal.
