In the early morning of October 15, the US-Canada-Mexico World Cup qualifiers continued, and England, ranked fourth in the world, visited Latvia as a guest.

There are 5 teams in Group K where England is located. Latvia has 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses in 6 games, ranking second in the group, only ahead of Andorra with 1 draw and 5 losses. Andorra's only points came from Latvia, which is enough to show the strength of Latvia.

England continues to play the role of the king of qualifiers, winning 5 games, scoring 13 goals, and conceding 0 goals. England is invincible. As long as they can defeat Latvia in this game, England will become the first team in Europe to qualify for the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

After the start, England pressed forward across the board, not giving Latvia any chance to breathe. Only 7 minutes into the game, the Three Lions had an excellent opportunity.

After hitting the wall with Gordon, Kane got outflanked and received Gordon's wonderful pass. The shot actually missed. Tuchel covered his face with his hands, feeling incredible.

How big is England's advantage? The game lasted less than 15 minutes, and England had already completed 6 shots, while Latvia made many mistakes.

In the 26th minute, England tore apart Latvia's defense with a simple long pass. Gordon dribbled laterally and shot into the far corner to break the deadlock.

Before the end of the first half, England still had a chance to expand its lead. Anderson's shot hit the outside instep, which he himself felt was a pity.

In the 44th minute, England pressed high and Saka stole the ball. Kane's shot was crisp and clear. Tuchel clenched his fist in celebration.

In the stoppage time of the first half, VAR intervened. After a review, the referee determined that Kane was brought down and awarded a penalty kick. Kane took charge himself, using changes in rhythm to deceive the goalkeeper and score twice.

This is Kane's fifth goal in this qualifying round, and also Kane's 75th goal on behalf of the England national team. He scored twice on behalf of England for the 13th time, continuing to set a new record.

At halftime, England had already taken a 3-0 lead and entered the World Cup finals with both feet. In the 58th minute, Tunisis' own goal helped England lead by 4 goals and the game was completely ruined. In the 85th minute, Eze scored calmly after shaking continuously.

In the end, England defeated Latvia 5-0 away from home. After this game, England, ranked 4th in FIFA, won all 6 World Cup preliminaries, scoring 18 goals and conceding 0 goals, and advanced to the US-Canada-Mexico World Cup.
