In Part 2 of this special Football For Kids episode, we follow England’s captain from the bright lights of Qatar to the road towards another enormous World Cup adventure.

After helping England reach the knockout stages in 2022, Kane scored against Senegal and prepared to face reigning champions France in a huge quarter-final.

Then came a moment every football fan remembers.

A penalty. A chance to equalise. A shot over the crossbar.

England were out, and Kane was left heartbroken beneath the floodlights.

But the greatest footballers are not defined by the moments when they fall. They are defined by the way they stand up again.

From his move to Bayern Munich to another chance to lead England on football’s biggest stage, this is a story about goals, pressure, bravery and refusing to give up on a dream. 🏆✨

In Part 1 of this special Football For Kids episode, we travel to Russia and relive the tournament that changed the mood around the England team.

Newly appointed captain Harry Kane scored twice against Tunisia in a stadium filled with buzzing midges, completed a hat-trick during England’s huge victory over Panama and kept his cool during a dramatic penalty shootout against Colombia.

There were last-minute goals, enormous pressure, inflatable unicorns and a famous night when England finally won a World Cup penalty shootout for the very first time.

England’s adventure ended with semi-final heartbreak against Croatia, but Kane finished the tournament with six goals and the Golden Boot.

The captain had arrived on football’s biggest stage. But his World Cup journey was only just beginning. 🏆✨

In Part 2 of this special Football For Kids episode, we follow Brazil’s superstar through the highs, heartbreaks and injuries of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.

In Russia, Neymar scored against Costa Rica and Mexico before Brazil’s dream was ended by Belgium. Four years later, he returned in Qatar with another chance to lead his country to glory.

After battling back from an ankle injury, Neymar scored a brilliant extra-time goal against Croatia and drew level with Pelé’s officially recognised Brazil goals tally at the time. But another dramatic penalty shootout ended in tears.

Now, after returning to Santos, could Neymar still have one final World Cup chapter left to write?

Goals. Magic. Pain. Pressure. And one enormous dream that refuses to disappear. 🇧🇷🏆✨

Discover the incredible story of Neymar Jr at the FIFA World Cup. 🇧🇷⚽

In Part 1 of this special Football For Kids episode, we travel to Brazil for the unforgettable 2014 World Cup.

Neymar was only 22 years old, but the hopes of an entire football-mad nation were resting on his shoulders. He scored twice against Croatia, added two more goals against Cameroon and held his nerve during a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Chile.

Then, in Brazil’s quarter-final against Colombia, everything changed. Neymar suffered a serious back injury which ended his tournament and forced him to watch from the sidelines as Germany defeated Brazil 7–1 in one of the most astonishing matches in World Cup history.

But Neymar’s story did not finish there. Two years later, he returned to the Maracanã Stadium for an emotional rematch with Germany and the chance to create a golden new memory. 🇧🇷🏆✨
