DJ Calvin Harris stoked by Harry Kane nod to ‘One Kiss’
NIZHNY NOVGOROD, Russia (AP) Harry Kane led England into the round of 16 at the World Cup then gave a nod to Scottish DJ Calvin Harris.
Kane was asked after England's 6-1 victory over Panama to pick a song to play on a Brazilian program as reward for his hat trick in the victory. Caught off guard by the request, the striker mulled the question from the Brazilian reporter.
''I'll go `One Kiss' by Calvin Harris and Dua Lipa,'' he offered Sunday.
Dua Lipa is British, and both she and Harris were thrilled with Kane's selection.
''Yes I'm Scottish but I don't care the legend Harry Kane picked our song,'' Harris posted on Twitter with a clip from Kane's post-match news conference.
Dua Lipa acknowledged the shout-out by reposting a tweet about Kane's selection.
Fans of both the soccer player and the artists also flooded social media supporting Kane's song choice.
