Harry Kane: It has been an unforgettable experience for me to do all this with everyone at Wembley.

Harry Kane said he had a "perfect night" after making his 125th appearance for England, equaling Peter Shilton's international record, and helping his team defeat the Czech Republic. The England captain scored twice, netting his 90th and 91st international goals, and also forced an own goal from Vladimir Chofar, helping Thomas Tuchel's England to a comfortable 3-0 victory over the Czech Republic at Wembley.  

Harry Kane's goal helped England secure their third consecutive victory in the UEFA Nations League, but the biggest highlight of the match was another significant milestone for him after 11 and a half years representing the national team. The manager started him as a striker, allowing the Bayern Munich striker to achieve a historic equal, joining legendary goalkeeper Peter Shilton as the player with the most appearances in England's history.  

After the match, Harry Kane said: "Tonight was a perfect night for me personally and for the team. It was wonderful to be able to do all this with everyone at Wembley. It's a night I'll be proud of forever."  

Speaking about his first goal, Harry Kane scored from close range after a fluid team play. He said, "We kept moving forward with a series of one-touch passes. Elliott Anderson passed the ball to Morgan Rodgers, and then Rodgers delivered a very precise cross. As a striker, you're always waiting for opportunities like that."  

“I think it all started with the first game against Spain. Although the result wasn’t ideal, there were still many positive aspects to be acknowledged, and we’ve been building on that ever since. Returning to the national team for the first training camp after a major tournament is never easy. This time we needed to complete four games in a short period, so we had to quickly regain our match fitness, and we did it incredibly fast, which is undoubtedly the most amazing thing.”  

“There is competition for every position in the team, and that will always be the case. When you come to the national team, the most important thing is to seize your opportunities. Whether the coach gives you 90 minutes, 5 minutes, or any other playing time, you should try your best to show yourself during that time. I think this is very evident in everyone in the team. Everyone wants to be a part of the team and wants to get a starting position, and healthy competition will only drive us to keep improving.”
