Simon Jordan has slammed Harry Kane's penalty miss at the World Cup, claiming that the England captain 'bottled it', and couldn't handle the 'pressure' of the pivotal moment.

Kane had put England level with France early in the second half from the 12-yard spot, but a second attempt to equalise from a penalty sailed far over the crossbar. England lost 2-1 as Les Bleus sealed a semi-final spot.

Businessman Jordan laid into Kane's penalty during a conversation with talkSPORT on Monday, putting the blame for England's exit squarely on the Spurs man - and that he earns plenty of money precisely so he can succeed in those key scenarios.
