Ian Wright has admitted that he was ‘ready to make great’ Tottenham forward Harry Kane on Wednesday night, before a late mistake by Leeds United’s Kalvin Phillips put an end to that, as he told ITV Sport (21 / 08/21 at 10:00 pm).
England conceded an injury time tie against Poland in their World Cup qualification last night – the Tottenham and Leeds duo kicked off the game.

It was Kane’s remarkable long-range effort that put his country in the lead after the break, but a late header from the home team saw both teams share the spoils.
Although Robert Lewandowski had a fairly uneventful second half, it was his cross that led to Damian Szymanski’s goal.
Phillips was the one who didn’t get close to the Bayern Munich player fast enough to stop the cross and Wright believes ‘tiredness’ played a role in that as his lack of action, in the end, played a role in the cost of your equipment. the three points.
“I was getting ready to enlarge Harry Kane,” Wright said. “And to say that Lewandowski did nothing because, in the second half, I thought that John Stones, throughout the game, treated him well.
“But only that space that didn’t quite close there, Kalvin Phillips. It gave him, as a world-class player, put a perfect ball. You have to give him credit for that. Quality player.
“Kalvin Phillips is just not coming off fast enough. I think that’s tired. I think that’s the only reason.
“He played a good game, he covered a lot of ground. But I think that, in that case, he lacked the sharpness to recognize it.

With someone of Lewandowski’s qualities on the field of play, he can maximize the smallest chances, and that’s exactly what he did last night.
And that is exactly why, along with Kane, he is a world-class footballer and one of the best nine in the world.
Overall, Phillips had a strong game and England should be pleased with his effort.
Gareth Southgate’s team had won every qualifying match leading up to their clash in Warsaw, so given they leave Poland disappointed with a draw, that says a lot.
