Harry Kane made a record-tying 125th appearance for England in the Nations League match against Czechia at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday — and marked the occasion with another goal.
The Bayern Munich striker moved level with former goalkeeper Peter Shilton on the list of most caps won for England's men's team. He can break the record when England plays Croatia on Nov. 12, also at Wembley.
The 33-year-old Kane scored a national record-extending 90th goal by sweeping home a close-range finish in the 40th minute.
Kane has been England captain since 2018 and is among the favorites to win the Ballon d’Or when the prestigious award is handed out on Oct. 26 in London.
He made his England debut in March 2015, scoring inside 80 seconds of coming on as a substitute against Lithuania.
Kane now has 37 more goals than Wayne Rooney, who is No. 2 on the scoring list.
Shilton, who played for England from 1970-90, congratulated Kane in a video message on social media — and said the former Tottenham striker could set an appearance record that “might never be beaten.”
“Because you're still going strong, Harry,” the 77-year-old Shilton said. “You're still playing well and scoring goals. And I know how much dedication and hard work you actually put into achieving this.”

SEATTLE (AP) — Federal authorities arrested and charged a 30-year-old from Washington state on Tuesday in connection with a February school shooting in British Columbia.
The U.S. attorney’s office in Seattle says James Cody Bryant of Bellingham, Washington, communicated with the 18-year-old shooter for six months ahead of time. Bryant, who identifies as female, did not report the shooter's plans to authorities and conspired with her to broadcast the attacks, authorities allege.
“Without Bryant’s misplaced loyalty and willingness to operate the livestream, we don’t ultimately know if the shooter would have gone through with the crime,” said W. Mike Herrington, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Seattle office.
Authorities say Jesse Van Rootselaar killed eight people and wounded 25 others. She first killed her mother and stepbrother at home before attacking a nearby school in the mountain community of Tumbler Ridge, killing five children ages 12 and 13 at the school as well as an educational assistant.
It was Canada’s deadliest mass shooting in years.
Van Rootselaar was later found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Authorities also allege Bryant provided advice on how to increase the carnage and what firearms to use, and that Bryant sent Van Rootselaar money to purchase a lighter that would be used to construct an explosive device.
Bryant advised Van Rootselaar about how to keep her plot a secret by deleting online messages and using virtual private networks, officials said.
Bryant tried to talk Van Rootselaar out of committing the attack at various points, authorities said, but ultimately did not contact law enforcement and provided support for her to carry out the shooting, authorities said.
The story and headline have been corrected to identify Bryant as a “resident” of Washington. Authorities say Bryant identifies as female.
