'Question marks are background noise' - Mings dismisses Kane criticism after England opener

The Three Lions captain was restricted to fewer touches than any other starting player against Croatia in their first match at Euro 2020

Tyrone Mings has defended England team-mate Harry Kane after the striker's quiet game against Croatia on Sunday.

Kane was restricted to fewer touches than any other member of England's starting line-up, but the Three Lions still managed to win their Euro 2020 opener 1-0 thanks to Raheem Sterling's goal.

Mings has declared criticism of Kane to be "background noise" as the team looks ahead to their second game of the tournament on Friday against Scotland.
