Tottenham star Kane inspires England to victory over Albania

Harry Kane has inspired England to a 2-0 away win over Albania.

The hosts, ranked 66th in the world, had a great opportunity to go ahead when Myrto Uzuni missed a great chance.

But it was all England from there as Kane broke the deadlock seven minutes before half-time.

After sitting out last week's 5-0 win over San Marino, the Tottenham striker latched onto Luke Shaw's cross with a superb diving header.

Mason Mount doubled the advantage midway through the second-half after connecting on Kane's pass.

Gareth Southgate's side now have two wins from two in their 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign.
