England began qualification for the 2024 European Championship with an historic win in Italy, despite a spirited second-half fightback from the hosts in Naples.
Harry Kane's record 54th international goal from the penalty spot and Declan Rice's close-range finish earned England a first win Italy since 1961 after an opening 45 minutes which suggested Southgate's side are still improving after an encouraging but ultimately disappointing World Cup campaign in the winter.
