Thomas Tuchel 's team ended their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign in the most perfect way, with a 2-0 victory right on Albania's field, thanks to a double from Harry Kane.

With this result, England have won all 8 matches in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers and have not conceded any goals!
According to Opta Joe, the Three Lions became the second team in history to achieve this spectacular achievement, after Yugoslavia achieved it in the 1954 World Cup qualifiers.
However, at that time, the Yugoslav team only played 4 matches, meaning that the record Thomas Tuchel and his team created after 72 years was even more impressive, with twice as many matches.
In the 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign, England was in Group K with Albania, Serbia, Latvia and Andorra. The final results showed a significant difference between the Three Lions and the rest, when they were 10 points ahead of the second-placed team (Albania).

“ The match was very good, I enjoyed it ,” said Thomas Tuchel after the final whistle Albania 0-2 England.
The Three Lions captain spoke out about Jude Bellingham being upset when he was substituted in the 83rd minute, when Harry Kane had put the team 2-0 up (74', 82').
“ It was a decision and he has to accept it. I saw Jude Bellingham was unhappy. I didn’t want to make it worse. Players like him are very competitive. But I’m not going to change my decision just because someone is unhappy about being substituted .”
