Kane’s 126th England cap sets men’s record in 2-1 win over Croatia
What’s next: England can still top its Nations League group and secure seeding for the quarterfinal draw with a win over Spain in Madrid.
Harry Kane set England’s men’s appearance record on Thursday, earning his 126th cap in a 2-1 Nations League win over Croatia at Wembley. The captain moved past Peter Shilton’s mark and capped the night by converting the decisive penalty, his 92nd goal for England. Kane also helped start the opening goal, dropping deep before picking out Jude Bellingham, whose cross was turned in by Morgan Rogers. The result sent England into the competition’s quarterfinals. Kane, 33, arrived at the match after winning the Ballon d’Or and has continued a prolific run for club and country, with 10 goals for Bayern Munich and six for England this season.
