Who Is Responsible for England’s Penalties
England's national team is preparing to face the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the round of 32 of the 2026 World Cup in Atlanta, following a tense performance in the group stage. Coach Thomas Tuchel is focused on avoiding mistakes, especially since the match could go to penalties if it ends in a draw, given England's improved record in taking penalty kicks under former coach Gareth Southgate. Harry Kane is expected to take the first spot kick, with other players like Antony Gordon and Ivan Toney also involved, while Ollie Watkins is considered less accurate. Meanwhile, veteran players such as Jordan Henderson and Roderick have previously missed penalties in past matches.
