In the 6th round of Group B in UEFA Nations League B, Kane scored the opening goal from the penalty spot, helping England secure a 5-0 victory over Ireland and promote to League A. After the match, England captain Kane spoke to the media.
Kane said, “This was a very important win for us. The training camp has been very successful, with two tough matches. We completed our task in Greece, and here as well. The first half was difficult, but we came out with more energy and ultimately won the game.”
“The new players have shown why they are here and scored some great goals. It’s also great to see Bowen score right after coming on. Our new head coach Tuchel will have many players to choose from. Many young players have performed well, and there are some injured veterans looking forward to returning, so the team balance is good. I believe he will pay attention to every player.”
“Lee Cassley and all the staff did an excellent job. It wasn’t easy to go straight into the Nations League after the Euros, and sometimes the motivation can be a bit lacking. I’m very happy that we won today and ended on a high note.”
