England delivered a dominant performance in a Nations League match against Croatia, winning 7‑0 on Croatian soil. Harry Kane added to his personal record with a goal that marked his sixth successive away game in which he has found the net for England, while Bukayo Saka contributed a double.

The English side opened the scoring early, with Kane’s strike setting the tone for what became a one‑sided affair. Saka’s two goals further widened the gap, and the team continued to press, eventually amassing a total of seven goals before the final whistle.

Kane’s latest goal extends his impressive run of scoring in every away fixture he has played for the national team, underscoring his importance to England’s attacking threat. Saka’s brace highlights his growing influence in the squad, adding depth to England’s forward options.

The result strengthens England’s position in the UEFA Nations League group, where they are competing for a place in the competition’s final stages. Croatia, meanwhile, will need to regroup after a heavy defeat on home ground.

Both teams will look ahead to their upcoming fixtures, with England hoping to maintain momentum and Croatia seeking to recover from the setback.
