Harry Kane’s two second-half goals powered England to a 2-1 World Cup win over Congo and a place in the round of 16 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Congo had taken a surprising halftime lead when Brian Cipenga scored, but Kane equalized with a header before adding the decisive strike in the 86th minute, placing it into the top corner. England appeared on course for one of the tournament’s biggest upsets for long stretches. The 1966 champions will face co-host Mexico in Mexico City on Sunday, with the round of 16 matchup set after the group-stage result.
