England captain makes his 126th international appearance and scores the winning goal against Croatia.
England captain Harry Kane has become the country’s most-capped men’s football player after making his 126th international appearance against Croatia.
England defeated Croatia 2-1 at Wembley Stadium on Thursday in the UEFA Nations League. Kane scored the winning goal from the penalty spot in the 64th minute.
The 33-year-old forward also increased his international goal tally to 92. He broke the previous appearance record of 125 caps held by former England goalkeeper Peter Shilton.
The victory also secured England’s place in the Nations League quarter-finals.
According to Reuters, England manager Thomas Tuchel described the occasion as a special evening for Kane and the team.
