Harry Kane breaks record and becomes first England star in 90 years to do this

Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane has enjoyed another successful week with England, away from the trials and tribulations of life in North London at the moment.

Kane captained his side to EURO 2020 qualification in style this week, first beating Montenegro 7-0 at Wembley before defeating Kosovo 4-0 away from home.

Across these two games, Harry also managed to grab four more goals in an England shirt, while getting his name on a couple of records in the process.

His strike against Kosovo last night meant that Kane had scored in every single one of England’s eight qualifying games for the Euros. He became the first player in England history to score in each game across an entire qualifying campaign.

Not only this, but Kane also levelled the best ever calendar year return for an England player with 12 goals, alongside George Hilsdon and Dixie Dean.

Kane is the first player to score 12 since Dean in 1927, over 90 years ago.

Congrats Harry!
