England captain Harry Kane says that the upcoming heat wave in the United States will be an ideal preparation for next year after Bayern Munich to the last 16 of the Club World Cup in the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on Friday.
The 31-year-old scored his first goal of the tournament when the Bundesliga champions conquered a determined Boca Juniors side to reach the knockouts with one game.
Despite the temperatures in the United States that have risen more than 40 degrees in the coming days, Kane has wiped out any concern and he insisted that it will be “great experience” if they will focus on World Cup Glory next summer.
“It is part of football, you have to be able to adjust,” he said.
“This is a great experience for me and some of the other English boys who will play in the World Cup next year.
“It is something special about these world cup competitions, and next year will be the same. If you come from that tone and you sweat and you drip and you cramp and you have given everything on the field.
“There is a special kind of feeling inside, especially if you win. That's what we had today.”
Defender Trent Alexander-Arnold said that the stifling circumstances during his Real Madrid debut in Miami 'were very challenging, very different from England'.

Kane said the couple had no contact, but the weather will “be something we are talking about in the coming (England).”
He said FlashScore: “(we will discuss) how it felt, how we adapted to it and what kind of training methods we have used and try to find the best training methods for us in the following year.
“All this is a good experience because the next summer will undoubtedly be difficult, and you have to use experiences like tonight to take advantage.
“I feel good,” he added. “It is a long season, but I have been doing it for seven or eight years with very little summer rest. You are trying to adapt, you try to take different precautions to recover.
“I feel fit, feel ready, so I will use this and what worked and what is not going in next year.”
