Harry Kane has become England men's all-time top goal scorer as he scored his 54th goal for the Three Lions against Italy on Thursday night. The Tottenham star took his tally beyond Wayne Rooney, who held the record with 53 goals during his career as a striker for the nation, with an emphatic penalty after Declan Rice had already given England the lead.
Gareth Southgate's side flew out of the blocks in Naples with Rice handing his nation the lead after just 13 minutes. Kane was then handed the chance to double the visitors' lead from the penalty spot and cement his name in England history by becoming the all-time record scorer.
Bukayo Saka had sent in a cross which was handled by Giovanni Di Lorenzo and given as a spot-kick after a VAR intervention. Faced by Gianluigi Donnarumma, Kane sent the shot-stopped the wrong way to put England 2-0 up and surpass Rooney at the top of the goal-scoring charts.
