#WC2018: Kane gives England 1-0 lead against Tunisia
VOLGOGRAD, Russia (AP) — Harry Kane has scored from close range to give England a 1-0 lead against Tunisia in their opening World Cup game in Volgograd.
Kane was on hand to tap the ball into the net in the 11th minute after Tunisia goalkeeper Moez Hassen had acrobatically saved a powerful John Stones header.
England has been in control in the early stages of the match, with Raheem Sterling missing what appeared an open goal from close range.
Tunisia has had to replace Hassen with Farouk Ben Mustapha following what looked like a shoulder injury.
