Kane Leads England to Biggest-Ever World Cup Win
England head into the knockout stages after claiming their biggest-ever win at a major tournament, per WhoScored.com:
Defender John Stones sent the Three Lions on their way, heading home on eight minutes after being left completely unmarked at a corner.
Kane notched his first from the penalty spot after Jesse Lingard was brought down in the area. The Manchester United man then curled a brilliant effort into the top corner from outside the box for England's third.
The goals continued to flow in a one-sided first half, with Stones finishing off a well-worked set-piece routine before Kane slotted home his second from the penalty spot just before half-time.
Former goalkeeper David Preece offered his view on England's display:
Kane completed his hat-trick just after the hour mark, as Ruben Loftus-Cheek's shot deflected off the England striker and beat goalkeeper Jaime Penedo.
Match of the Day showed how Kane now leads the race for the Golden Boot:
Panama managed to pull a goal back, their first strike at a World Cup, but it was only a consolation. They were well beaten and are out of the tournament.
Dale Johnson at ESPN FC showed how the group will be decided:
England and Belgium meet at the Kaliningrad Stadium on Thursday, while Panama will complete their campaign against Tunisia, with both teams still searching for their first points of the tournament.
Honda Rescues A Draw For Japan
In Group H Sadio Mane was on target for Senegal as he opened the scoring after a poor mistake by Japan goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima.
However, Japan hit back as Takashi Inui curled home a fine strike, and they almost went ahead but Yuya Osako's effort hit the crossbar.
Moussa Wague restored Senegal's lead with an emphatic finish from close range. The goal saw him become Africa's youngest ever goalscorer at a World Cup, per Squawka Football:
It was not enough to secure the win as Keisuke Honda equalised minutes after arriving as a substitute.
Colombia Send Poland Packing
Sunday's final game of the day saw Colombia put in an impressive attacking display as they cruised to a 3-0 win over Poland.
Yerry Mina opened the scoring in the first half by powering home a header from a superb James Rodriguez cross.
Juan Fernando Quintero set up Radamel Falcao for Colombia's second of the game after half-time. It was the Monaco striker's first ever World Cup goal:
Juan Cuadrado put the icing on the cake for Colombia on 75 minutes, as he raced onto a pass from James and slotted the ball past goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
It was a much-improved display from Colombia who turned on the style and can confirm their place in the last 16 with a win over Senegal in their final group game.
