England manager Gareth Southgate has hailed Harry Kane as one of his country’s best ever strikers.

The Tottenham striker scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot as the Three Lions ended their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 1-0 win in Lithuania.

It was Kane’s 15th goal in his last ten matches for club and country, and Southgate reckons he’s up there with the likes of Alan Shearer, Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen.

"It's a fantastic record and his finishing quality is top - as good as anybody I've played with or worked with," former England defender Southgate said.
