Hugo Lloris backs Spurs teammate Harry Kane to bounce back from World Cup penalty heartbreak

Hugo Lloris has backed club teammate Harry Kane to bounce back from his World Cup 2022 penalty heartbreak.

The Tottenham Hotspur duo went head-to-head in the quarter-finals last weekend, as France knocked England out of the tournament.

Kane scored - and then missed - a spot kick as the Three Lions lost 2-1, crashing out earlier than hoped.

“[Harry Kane and I] had a text after the game,” Lloris revealed.

“It’s a difficult time, obviously for the English national team and for Harry, but I think he can be proud of what he’s done.”
