England sealed World Cup 2026 qualification with a 5–0 win in Latvia. Kane scored twice to reach 76 goals in 110 caps and logged his 13th multi-goal game for England as Thomas Tuchel’s side made it six wins from six without conceding.
Tuchel said Kane addressed teammates postmatch to maintain standards and manage minutes in November while staying competitive. England will rotate selectively, protecting rhythm and fitness ahead of next summer’s tournament in North America.

Thomas Tuchel substituted Jude Bellingham in the 67th minute of England’s 3-0 World Cup qualifier win against Latvia to avoid the risk of a red card. Bellingham had already been booked and was involved in another reckless challenge.
After a first-half yellow and another risky tackle, Tuchel opted to remove Bellingham early to maintain control. England won comfortably with goals from Reece James, Harry Kane, and Eberechi Eze, climbing to the top of Group K with Tuchel extending his perfect start.
