Video | Harry Kane makes hilarious gaffe when asked about the favorites to win the Qatar 2022 World Cup

The Qatar 2022 World Cup is just around the corner, and although the UEFA Nations League, the CONCACAF Nations League, international friendlies, and the Africa Cup of Nations are being played, no national team can stop thinking about the World Cup.

Kane, who is four goals away from becoming England's all-time leading scorer (he has 50 goals and Wayne Rooney scored 53), is the captain of the national team and one of the team's leading players.

During an interview with ESPN´s Sports Center, he was asked about the candidates to win the Qatar 2022 World Cup, and he said: “There are so many good teams. You have some top European teams: us, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and then you have Brazil and Argentina. You have top teams around the world. To win a World Cup you have to be at a high, high level for seven games”.
