Harry Kane has netted his 90th goal for England, placing him alongside Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in a tiny elite of internationals. He reached the milestone against Czechia at Wembley during UEFA Nations League Matchday 4.
Kane struck in the 40th minute, timing a lofted Morgan Rogers cross and sliding it low into the bottom‑left corner to make it 2‑0 before the break. England’s first lead came from a Vladimír Coufal own‑goal in the 25th, set up by a Kane delivery.
He wasn’t done. After the interval Kane added a third, sealing a 3‑0 win and pushing his England tally to 91. The first half already saw him extend the lead, cementing his impact.
Only seven players have ever hit the 90‑goal mark for country: Ali Daei, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Sunil Chhetri, Romelu Lukaku, Robert Lewandowski and now Kane.
Ronaldo tops the list with 146 for Portugal, Messi sits second with 125 after tonight’s farewell, and Daei rounds out the podium at 108.
Kane’s chase puts him in direct company with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi for the coveted Golden Boot record.
A night to remember for Kane. Will he break Shilton’s cap record next month?
Beyond the goals, the captain logged his 125th appearance for the Three Lions, equalling goalkeeper Peter Shilton’s all‑time men’s record, a benchmark that has stood since 1990.
He already surpassed Wayne Rooney in the 2026 World Cup to become England’s most‑capped outfield player and remains the team’s top scorer. Kane is poised to break Shilton’s mark next month when England meet Croatia in Nations League Matchday 5.
These milestones sit atop a storied England career: Kane leads the Lions by 38 goals over Wayne Rooney, holds the national World Cup scoring record with 14—four ahead of Gary Lineker—and shares a seven‑goal Euro tally with Alan Shearer. For my money, Kane is already England’s greatest striker.
