Harry Kane scored England's third in Monday's 3-0 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina and in doing so the England captain reached quite a milestone.

The Three Lions took a 2-0 lead in the friendly thanks to a penalty from Cole Palmer and a goal from Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Kane then rounded off the victory with a close range strike after a goal mouth scramble.


The goal was the Bayern Munich striker's 63rd in international football, taking him one ahead of the legendary Ronaldo.

Many consider the Brazilian to be the greatest No 9 in the history of international football but he Kane's numbers are more impressive.

Kane has found the net 63 times in 90 caps while Ronaldo managed 62 in 98 caps. 

England kicked off their European Championship preparation with what was a relatively comfortable a 3-0 win.

England stepped up their pace after a dull first half and Palmer, who scored nine penalties for Chelsea this season, broke the deadlock with his first England goal in the 60th minute from the spot after Ezri Konsa was tugged down in the box.

Liverpool's Alexander-Arnold, who was one of the bright spots on the night, doubled their lead in the 85th minute with his third goal for England when he fired home from a tight angle.

England host Iceland in their final friendly on Friday at Wembley before departing for Germany.
