Harry Kane doubles up on a landmark night as England cruise past Czechia in the Nations League. The captain marked his 125th cap with two goals, moving his international tally to 91 and equalling Peter Shilton's record for England appearances.
Harry Kane Doubles Up on Landmark Night
It was a night that belonged to Harry Kane. Yet again. From the moment he was shown a replay of his first England goal during a pre-match interview with ITV – the header against Lithuania in 2015, just 79 seconds after coming on as a substitute – the stage was set. He ended it reflecting on two more goals in a supremely comfortable victory over Czechia.

On the occasion of his 125th cap, the one that took him level with Peter Shilton at the top of the all-time England list, Kane moved to an astonishing 91 goals. Nobody will be surprised if he reaches the century. The only question appears to be when.
England's Dominance Under Thomas Tuchel
England know how to beat the game's smaller fry. Under Thomas Tuchel, they have played 16 matches against teams ranked outside the world's top 20. They have won 15 and drawn one – against Ghana at the World Cup. They have conceded only once – against the Democratic Republic of the Congo, also at the World Cup.
Czechia, ranked No 50, were never in the contest. Kane is similarly inevitable. The captain even claimed the assist for the breakthrough goal with a cross into the corridor of uncertainty that spooked Vladimir Coufal so severely he shot into his own net. Kane's passing was very good. When he was withdrawn in the 82nd minute, he left to a standing ovation.
