Watch: After ‘successful curse’ on Harry Kane, Ghanaian witch doctor casts England star off spell Football News:
England’s goalless World Cup draw against Ghana sparked attention on and off the pitch after a Ghanaian witch doctor admitted he cursed England captain Harry Kane and later “released” him after the match.Nana Kwaku Bonsam, a self-proclaimed spiritualist who previously claimed responsibility for a knee injury suffered by Cristiano Ronaldo before the 2014 World Cup, posted a video after Kane missed the last chance in Boston.Bonsam said he was working to stop Kane from scoring against Ghana but insisted he did not mean a serious injury.“I am the most powerful spiritualist in the whole world. Now, I will release Harry Kane so that, in his next game, he can score,” said Bonsam. “Harry, I’m going to visit you. Don’t be angry. We’re friends.”See:Before the game, he admitted. “I worked with Harry Kane. I showed what I can do before, so I know what I have to do to stop him. I’m very famous for my predictions.”The comments even prompted a response from illusionist Uri Geller, who vowed to counter any negative energy directed at the England striker.While the strange story of the curse grabbed the headlines, England’s performance was much debated. Former defender Micah Richards described the performance as “a Southgate performance”, saying the team lacked energy and creativity compared to their opening win against Croatia.Former England stars Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, Joe Cole, Gary Neville and Roy Keane largely agreed that England were lucky not to lose after escaping a penalty decision and a possible red card for goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.Despite the criticism, most pundits have urged calm, noting that England remain well placed in the tournament. Manager Thomas Tuchel and his side now turn their attention to a crucial final game of the group stage against Panama.
