Last-gasp Kane earns England dramatic draw

A remarkable World Cup qualifying clash between Scotland and England finished 2-2 as Harry Kane rescued the Three Lions with an injury-time equaliser at Hampden Park.

Scotland, who started as 5-1 underdogs and drifted out to 350-1 in-play with just four minutes remaining as they trailed 1-0, looked on course for a dramatic victory following two sublime Leigh Griffiths free-kicks.

Griffiths had never previously scored for Scotland but he looked to be the toast of the Tartan Army as Gordon Strachan's men were cut to 1-16 for a vital victory. However, they were unable to hold on with captain Kane levelling matters to break home hearts.

Few would have predicted the frantic ending after a goalless first 70 minutes before the derby exploded into life when substitute Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain struck for the Three Lions, although Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon will have been bitterly disappointed not to have stopped the effort.

Gareth Southgate's side went as low as 1-25 in-play before Griffiths' free-kick double but Kane made sure England stayed unbeaten in qualifying. Coral are 1-3 they don't lose en route to Russia.

England stay in control at the top of Group F but Scotland remain fourth and face an uphill battle to make the World Cup in Russia. The other early match in Group F finished with Slovenia beating Malta
2-0.

There was also a massive late goal in Group C as Northern Ireland nicked a crucial 1-0 success away to Azerbaijan. Stuart Dallas notched at the death with Northern Ireland remaining second in Group C.
