Summary
Ninth-minute VAR intervention gave Harry Kane a second penalty attempt, and he converted after Dominik Livakovic had saved the first effort.
Images showed Livakovic moved fractionally off his line, breaching the rule that a goalkeeper must keep one foot on or above the line at the kick.
Josko Gvardiol had also entered the area early and cleared the rebound, a touch that mattered because Noni Madueke was behind him and could have reached the loose ball.
The retaken spot-kick came after Luka Modric fouled Madueke, putting England 1-0 up against Croatia in their World Cup match.
