Harry Kane has scored seven goals in the tournament and has led them well. Kane’s teammates Kyle Walker and Jesse Lingard have been exceptional throughout the World Cup. Lingard has been a livewire in the World Cup and is providing the creative spark for Southgate’s side. He has scored a goal and assisted one more in the tournament so far.

Santiago Arias (Colombia) – 33.6 km/h

Though the Columbians were knocked out of the tournament, the 26-year-old from PSV Eindhoven showed some blistering pace in the tournament. He was one of the best fullbacks in Eredivisie with three goals and five assists during the 2017/18 season. The PSV right-back Santiago Arias is the fourth fastest player in Russia. He reached speeds of 33.6 km/h during their round of clash against England on 3rd July.

Luis Advincula (Peru) – 33.8 km/h

Peru right-back Luis Advincula clocked the third-fastest speed in the World Cup. The 28-year-old set the pace during Peru’s 1-0 defeat to Denmark in their first game of the tournament in Russia. Luis Advincula earlier reached 36.15 km/h during a game against Chivas in the Liga MX, eclipsing Gareth Bale’s record to become the fastest footballer in the world.
