England secured a decisive victory over Czechia 2-0 on September 29, 2026, showcasing their striking capabilities. Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane dominated the match, both contributing two goals. Nico O’Reilly missed the first leg of a planned Nations League match due to injury. The game featured a VAR review of Pavel Sulc’s tackle on Anderson, impacting the hosts’ initial momentum, while Thomas Tuchel’s team capitalized on a cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold in the first half, scoring a goal through a fine cross from the attacking midfielder. James Trafford then blocked a Czechia corner, and Luke Cavren volleyed home a goal to seal the victory for England. The game was largely a comfortable display for England, with the team displaying a strong defensive presence despite early signs of sloppy play that cost them in their previous encounter against Spain.
