The GuardianHarry Kane doubles up on landmark night as England cruise past Czechia
England enjoyed a seamless Nations League performance against Czechia on Wednesday, with striker Harry Kane leading the way. The veteran forward opened the scoring twice, bringing his international goal count to an impressive 91.
The occasion was made even more special for Kane, who celebrated his 125th appearance for England – a figure that puts him level with Peter Shilton for the most caps in the country’s history. During a pre‑match interview with ITV, he was shown a replay of his first England goal, a header against Lithuania in 2015, reminding viewers of how far he has come.
According to The Guardian, the English side controlled the game from start to finish, and the comfortable victory underlines their status as one of the tournament’s favorites. Kane reflected on the night after the match, noting that the two goals felt like a fitting tribute to his long‑standing contribution to the national team.
With 91 goals already to his name, the striker is edging closer to the coveted century mark. While no exact timeline can be set, many observers expect that Kane will join the exclusive club of England players with 100 international goals in the near future.
