Watch: Harry Kane gets his voice back after viral FIFA World Cup interview
Harry Kane laughed off the viral reaction after regaining his voice following England's win over Mexico. The squeaky interview became a hit, capping chaotic celebrations in Mexico City on Sunday evening.
England captain Harry Kane has finally found his vocal cords again, laughing off the viral internet storm generated by his high-pitched, squeaking pitch side interview following the Three Lions' epic 3-2 World Cup victory over Mexico. Standing in front of the BBC cameras just a few hours after the match in Mexico City, a fully recovered Kane was able to speak normally, addressing the massive social media reaction with a beaming smile.
"I have got my voice back thankfully," Kane chuckled.
"After an all-timer of an interview, I have been killed about back home with all my mates. After that I am not bothered, it was worth it."
The forward's relief comes after what was instantly branded one of the funniest post-match interviews in football history. Immediately following the final whistle at a raucous Estadio Azteca, Kane had walked into the flash interview zone completely, unable to speak in his regular register. Having spent the immediate aftermath of the match screaming on the pitch and passionately belting out the squad's unofficial tournament anthem with the travelling supporters, his vocal cords were left completely shredded.
Attempting to answer questions from a broadcaster, the Bayern Munich striker’s voice cracked into an extraordinarily strained, high-pitched wheeze that sent the BBC studio panel and fans online into absolute stitches.
Croaking through the initial chat, Kane laughed at his own condition, admitting: "My voice has gone... I've just been singing there, I can't really talk. Everything was against us, we found a way. I'm speechless, I can't even talk."
The clip exploded across social media platforms, with fans ruthlessly comparing the England skipper to Mickey Mouse, Marge Simpson, and Kermit the Frog.
While his group of friends back home may not let him live down the high-pitched interview anytime soon, Kane insisted the vocal sacrifice was a small price to pay for what he described as one of the national team's greatest ever wins.
It was a night of pure drama that more than justified the raucous celebrations. After a lightning-fast double from Jude Bellingham put Thomas Tuchel's side 2-0 up, the match turned into a chaotic battle when defender Jarell Quansah was sent off early in the second half. Kane stepped up to smash home a crucial penalty to make it 3-1, before conceding a penalty at the other end that allowed Mexico back into the tie.
Down to 10 men and facing 11 minutes of agonizing stoppage time, England dug deep to survive the hostile atmosphere and secure their spot in the quarter-finals.
With his voice fully restored and the banter from his teammates safely handled, Kane can now focus on the next big challenge: a highly anticipated quarter-final showdown against Erling Haaland’s Norway in Miami.
