"I'm extremely proud, not just for myself but for the team, for the nation," Kane said. "We should enjoy tonight, it's no easy thing getting to a World Cup. There are some big countries around the world that are struggling. I'm delighted, the team are delighted. "To lead that team out and to have the game pan out like it did, as a striker you dream of that kind of moment, scoring a last-minute winner, so for that to happen here at Wembley is incredible."
