""Whenever you're creating history, it shows that you're on the right path,""
""I think we've had a lot of great qualifying campaigns in recent history, and we've topped that with this one, so we can be really proud of the hard work that we put in.""
""I know sometimes we maybe don't get the credit for these type of wins and campaigns, but we've done our job, we've done what we need to do, and we've done it in style as well.""
England completed a perfect World Cup qualifying campaign by beating Albania 2-0, finishing with eight wins, 22 goals scored and zero conceded. Harry Kane scored twice in the victory and led England to their eighth successive World Cup qualification. England became just the second European side to win 100% of matches in a FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign without conceding, after Yugoslavia in 1954. England also recorded 11 straight competitive wins for the first time. Kane emphasized pride in the achievement, cited the clean-sheet record as evidence of capability, and said clean sheets have driven tournament runs.
