Kane reflects on humble beginnings after memorable night for England

“Trent backed up with another great performance. We always looked like the team who would break the deadlock.

“We spoke about being ruthless but in these games you have to keep knocking on the door and you will get your reward.

“The manager has come in with a great energy, talks a lot of about freedom and attacking and hurting the teams.

“Of course there is a room for improvement, but a great start for him.”
