WATCH: England fans at The Source Bar in Maidstone go crazy celebrating Harry Kane's injury time winner against Tunisia at 2018 World Cup in Russia

A video of England fans in Maidstone celebrating Harry Kane's last gasp winner against Tunisia in the World Cup has received thousands of views online.

The 30-second clip, recorded and shared by 18-year-old James Nourse, shows hundreds of fans at The Source Bar in Rose Yard jubilantly celebrating Tottenham Hotspur striker Kane's late strike as the Three Lions saw off their African opponents 2-1 in their opening game at the tournament in Volgograd.

Mr Nourse, who lives in Allington and has just finished sixth form at St Simon Stock Catholic School, said: "The atmosphere was amazing, the scenes on both of the goals were unbelievable.

"It’s hard to tell how many people were there but it was packed, you couldn’t move.

"I keep seeing the video pop up on my phone, it's cool to be the 'one' with that video this time."

The Source Bar was one of a number of venues across the county which broadcast the game on a huge screen.

The win gave Gareth Southgate's side the perfect start in their bid to qualify from Group G and are next in action on Sunday, when they take on tournament debutants Tunisia in Nizhny Novgorod.

Mr Nourse added: "I think we can get through the group and with England you never know after that."
