England beat Croatia 2-1 at Wembley in the Nations League to reach the quarter-finals. Captain Harry Kane put the home side ahead in the 64th minute with a penalty.

Shortly before Kane's goal, the hosts had conceded an equaliser after a mistake. The goal was the 92nd Kane scored for England as a Bayern Munich forward. He sent the ball into the middle, and goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic dived to the left.

Before the match, Kane walked onto the pitch with his four children and received a commemorative gift from former goalkeeper Peter Shilton. Head coach Thomas Tuchel said the victory crowned a special evening. Tuchel described Kane as an exemplary leader in his role as captain.
