Harry Kane has built one of the great England careers, and it began in March 2015, when he scored just 79 seconds after coming on as a substitute against Lithuania at Wembley.
His breakthrough at a major tournament came at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
He scored twice against Tunisia, including a stoppage time winner, and grabbed a hat trick in the 6 - 1 win over Panama.
He finished with six goals, won the Golden Boot, and became the first Englishman since Gary Lineker in 1986 to take the award.
He also scored a penalty against Colombia in the last 16, and converted his spot kick in the shootout as England reached the quarter-finals.
At Euro 2020, he scored against Germany in the last 16 and then netted the decisive rebound in extra time against Denmark, sending England to their first men's major final since 1966.
Italy beat them on penalties in the final.
In March 2023, he became England's all time leading goalscorer after a penalty against Italy, passing Wayne Rooney's record.
At Euro 2024, he scored against the Netherlands in the semi-final and finished as joint top scorer of the tournament with three goals.
He marked his 100th England appearance with two goals in a 2 - 0 win over Finland at Wembley.
