France, July 11 -- "I don't think it's a secret that Kane is match-leader number one for England and Haaland is match-leader number one for us," said Solbakken who has guided a Norway squad into a first World Cup quarter final.

"He's in the shape of his life and in the highest peak of his career," said Tuchel of Kane. England skipper Harry Kane has struck six goals for England in their surge to a World Cup last eight showdown with Norway in Miami.

"He has the mindset of a team player," added the 52-year-old German. "He's ready to lead by example and to push everybody, always ready to take responsibility, always ready to perform and help us. It's a privilege to have him as captain, a privilege to be his coach."
