Tie-breakers are crucial in the knockout stage and obviously Lloris would have seen Harry take many a spot-kick, but the Englishman's versatility makes him dangerous, felt the shot-stopper

France skipper and goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, 35, has been playing alongside England captain Harry Kane, 29, at the same club team—Tottenham Hotspur—in the EPL for almost a decade. However, rather than this being an advantage when the two face-off for Saturday’s blockbuster quarter-final at the Al Bayt Stadium, Lloris is wary of Kane. “We’ve been playing together for nine years now [at Spurs], so I know Harry very well, both, on and off the pitch. I only have positive things to say about him. He’s a real leader and a good example to his teammates besides being a top player himself. He has been a very decisive player for our club just as he is for the England team,” Lloris told the media on Friday.
