On June 17, in the first round of Group C of the European Cup, England faced Serbia. During the first half, Kane had only 2 touches of the ball, and watching the match, Carragher jokingly criticized that Kane had become possessed by Haaland.
In the England vs. Serbia fixture, at the 13th minute, Saka delivered a threatening cross from the right wing, and Bellingham headed it in from the box, giving England a 1-0 lead.
Throughout the first half, England’s team had an impressive 385 touches, dominating possession. However, as the attacking cornerstone, Kane was barely noticeable with just 2 touches. Commentator Carragher, witnessing Kane’s struggle, humorously compared him to Haaland.
Despite Haaland winning the Premier League Golden Boot for two consecutive seasons, his performance in high-stakes matches has been criticized. Some even label him as a “finisher,” lacking the ability to create opportunities independently. Today, Carragher’s comparison of Kane to Haaland is a mixed blessing for both players.
