The defeat, which saw England lose 2-1, has left Kane and his teammates struggling to come to terms with their exit. "It wasn't the team that we wanted and said we'd be," Kane said, reflecting on the loss. "When you maybe go against your beliefs and you lose, it feels 10 times worse than just losing in a way where ... if we lose doing it our way you accept it, take it on the chin and move on."
Kane is determined to move on from the defeat and is chasing a statement performance against Spain at Wembley on Saturday night in the Nations League. However, he admits he is yet to get over the Argentina game and knows it is something he and his teammates must work to process.
The Nations League matches will be a crucial test for England, who are looking to fine-tune their performance after a disappointing World Cup campaign. Kane accepts it was not only against Argentina that England were not at their best, and is eager to identify why they have repeatedly fallen short against the toughest teams when it matters most.
