England secured a 3‑0 UEFA Nations League victory over the Czech Republic on Tuesday, with Harry Kane scoring a hat‑trick, according to the Independent.
The first goal came after Czech captain Vladimir Coufal inadvertently turned Kane's cross into his own net in the 30th minute. A swift one‑touch move involving Elliot Anderson and Morgan Rogers set up Kane for his second strike. He added a third with a header in the second half.
Kane's tally moved his international goal count into the 90s and his 125th England appearance matched Peter Shilton's record for most caps. The win further bolstered Thomas Tuchel's side in their push for Nations League quarter‑final qualification.
