Tom Cruise FaceTimed the England team prior to Euro 2020 final
Tom Cruise reached out to the England soccer team to wish them luck ahead of their Euro 2020 final match against Italy.
Unfortunately, the actor's best intentions didn't help the team score a win — Italy claimed the Euros title after a tense penalty shootout.
"Obviously we have had ex-players and people get in touch. We actually had Tom Cruise get in touch yesterday evening, you get everyone who loves football," Kane told BBC Radio 5Live.

"The majority of people in the world love football, so it's great to have all that support not just in England but across the world, so it's been a great time for all of us."
It was also reported by The Independent that Cruise gave the England team an early preview of Top Gun: Maverick.
"They had a preview of a film that's due out further down the line and they had Tom dial in to speak to them which was, I would imagine, quite surreal," England manager Gareth Southgate told the outlet.
