(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lee Young-ho = The England soccer team, led by multiple goals from 'goal scorer' Harry Kane (Munich), defeated the Czech Republic and achieved three consecutive wins in the 2026-2027 UEFA Nations League.
England won 3-0 against the Czech Republic in the 2026-2027 UNL League A Group 3 4th game held at Wembley Stadium in London, England on the 7th (Korean time), led by Kane's one-man show, who scored two goals and an own goal.
As a result, England (9 points) recorded its 3rd consecutive win since losing 2-3 to Spain in the first game, and maintained 2nd place in the group after Spain (12 points), which defeated Croatia 2-1 that day and won its 4th game in a row.
Coach Thomas Tuchel, who leads the England national team, recorded 20 wins (2 draws, 4 losses) in 26 games, setting a new record for the lowest number of wins in 20 games by an England national team coach.
The best star of the game that day was definitely England's Kane.
On this day, Kane appeared as the top striker for England, which used the 4-2-3-1 tactic, and played in his 125th international match.
As a result, Kane matched the record of the most appearances (125 games) in the England national team history held by goalkeeper Peter Shilton (77), who was first selected for the England national team in November 1970 and guarded the goal for the England national team for nearly 20 years until the 1990 World Cup in Italy.
When Kane participates in the 2026-2027 UNL League A Group 3 4th match against Croatia scheduled for November 13th, Korean time, he will stand tall as the England national team's player with the most A matches ever.
On the day he tied the record for the most appearances in international matches, Kane clearly revealed his sense of goal.
Kane was involved in England's first goal when his attempted cross in the 27th minute of the first half led to an own goal.
In the 40th minute of the first half, Kane finally received a pass from Morgan Rogers (Chelsea) and scored with a right-footed shot.
In the 12th minute of the second half, Kane scored multiple goals with a header with help from Lewis Hall (Newcastle).
With this multi-goal, Kane increased his record for most goals in England's all-time A-match record to 91, and came 9 goals closer to achieving his 100th goal.
In the end, the England team won 3-0 thanks to Kane's one-man show, who was involved in all three of the England team's goals that day.
Kane was delighted to have tied for the most appearances in A-match games, saying, “It was my most ambitious dream.”
Regarding the challenge of scoring his 100th goal in an international match, he remained humble, saying, "I try not to think too much. If I think too much about the number '100,' I often end up not reaching it."
When asked if he would be able to challenge Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nasr)'s 146th goal in international matches, he said, "We are now more than 50 goals away. It is a terribly far off number right now, but no one can know the result," and emphasized, "I am in top shape. I will stay as long as I feel it will help the team."
