Harry Kane celebrated his 100th appearance for England in style, scoring twice in a thrilling 2-0 win over Finland in the UEFA Nations League on Tuesday 🎉.
Before kickoff, Kane was honored with a golden cap and donned special gold boots at Wembley Stadium. His teammates swarmed him after his first goal—a classic Kane strike! He danced past a Finnish defender and unleashed a rocket 🔥 that clipped the underside of the crossbar as it soared into the net.
The magic didn't stop there. Kane's second goal came courtesy of newcomer Noni Madueke, who set up the captain for a shot that took a slight deflection—but who's counting? The crowd erupted, giving Kane a standing ovation when he was substituted shortly after 🙌.
\"It was a big night for me, obviously really proud to reach 100 caps. I want to score goals, I want to help the team,\" Kane beamed.
This marks the second straight 2-0 victory for interim manager Lee Carsley, stepping in after Gareth Southgate's departure following the Euro 2024 final loss to Spain. With performances like this, Carsley might just extend his stay at the helm 👀.
England now tops their Nations League group with six points, level with Greece, who also secured a 2-0 win over Ireland. The competition is heating up, and we can't wait to see what's next! 🔥
