England striker Harry Kane says they are working to instill a brave and aggressive mentality in order to win the World Cup in Russia.
“The aim is to be aggressive and brave. That’s what we are trying to instill into the team. We want to take this tournament head on,” Kane told a news conference.
“There will be tough moments and there will be ups and downs. But for us it’s to play attacking football, to score, and that’s important. Sometimes going into a big tournament is about not losing and being passive. But for us it’s about winning the first game, second game and to take that attitude to the World Cup.”
Their opening Group G fixture will be against Tunisia on Monday.
