England delivered a dominant performance, dismantling Ireland 5-0 in their Nations League clash.

The match saw four players net their first international goals as the Three Lions secured promotion to the competition’s next round.

Harry Kane, who had a quiet first half, turned the game around within minutes of the restart.

A brilliant pass from the England captain led to Jude Bellingham winning a penalty, which Kane converted for his 69th international goal.

Ireland was also reduced to ten men as their defensive lineup crumbled.

Kane’s contribution quashed doubts about his role under new England boss Thomas Tuchel.

Anthony Gordon and Conor Gallagher found the net soon after Kane’s opener, each scoring their maiden goals for England.

Jarrod Bowen and debutant Taylor Harwood-Bellis also opened their international accounts, capping a night of celebration for Lee Carsley’s side.

Carsley’s tenure as interim manager ends on a high, with five wins in six matches and a successful promotion campaign.
