“Perfect” night for Kane

Kane, 31, enjoyed a perfect night at Wembley, scoring both goals for the Three Lions.

England secured back-to-back victories in their opening two Nations League matches under interim manager Lee Carsley.

“As a striker of course on my 100th cap I wanted to score a goal and make the night as memorable as possible and to win the game as well,” said Kane.

“So to score a couple of good goals, a couple of nice finishes and help the team win 2-0 was pretty much perfect so a proud night for me and the family and now we can enjoy it.”

“I had enough shots to get a hat trick but [interim boss] Lee [Carsley] spoke about managing some minutes with a lot of games coming up.”

“I’ve always spoken about when things are not going your way, trying to use that to bring an energy, a motivation and a hunger not just to prove other people but to prove to yourself that you can keep maintaining this level and keep pushing.”

“That’s what I talk about. There will be a time — I’m not sure when — when the level will drop and you won’t quite feel the same but while I feel like I do, I want to keep pushing the boundaries. I think I showed that out there tonight and come October, I’ll be ready to go again.”

Golden Cap

Kane received a golden cap by fellow England centurions Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole in a special ceremony before kick-off.

The Bayern Munich striker became the 10th men’s player to reach the milestone.

Kane, who made his England debut in March 2015, is England’s all-time top scorer with 68 goals.

He has played more games at major finals (28) than any other Englishman, but has yet to win a trophy.
