England captain Harry Kane trained ahead of Friday's World Cup clash against the United States after Gareth Southgate laid to rest fears of a foot injury for the striker.
Kane
suffered a knock after a clumsy challenge by Morteza Pouraliganji in England's 6-2
win against Iran on Monday - the national team's biggest ever win at the start
of a major tournament.
The Spurs
striker, who has a history of ankle problems, did play on for 25 minutes but
was seen limping after the game and went for a precautionary scan.
Southgate
revealed Kane had trained with the rest of the squad behind closed doors on
Wednesday and he also joined his team-mates on the pitch at England's Al Wakrah
camp when the cameras were present on Thursday.
"He is
good, he has worked a little bit more individually on Wednesday but he will
back in with the team on Thursday and good for the game," Southgate said
on ITV.
