England striker Harry Kane has had a disappointing start to the European Championship, but said he isn't worried by a lack of goals in the group stage and hopes to peak in the knockout rounds, starting with Tuesday's last-16 clash with Germany.

Kane, England's skipper, faced criticism of his form after below-par displays led to him being substituted in both the 1-0 win over Croatia and the 0-0 draw with Scotland."It's definitely not the first time people have doubted me," Kane told British media."People are quick to change their mind. It wasn't too long ago when I won the Golden Boot and I was the best thing in the world.

"I felt in Russia I started on fire, scored loads of goals, then didn't have my best performances in the most important games. So coming into this, physically, I wanted to make sure I was peaking at the right time."
