England have won both of their Euro 2024 qualifiers so far

England maintained their winning start to Euro 2024 qualifying with a comfortable victory over Ukraine at Wembley.<\/p>\n

Gareth Southgate\u2019s side built on the foundation of their\u00a0first away win against Italy since 1961\u00a0with an efficient performance that was more than enough to see off the visitors.<\/p>\n

England struggled to build any momentum until record scorer Harry Kane made it 55 international goals when he bundled in Bukayo Saka\u2019s cross at the far post eight minutes before half-time.<\/p>\n

The second arrived three minutes later and was all Saka\u2019s own work, the Arsenal winger turning away from his man on the edge of the area and curling a superb effort beyond the reach of Anatoliy Trubin and into the top corner.<\/p>\n

Leicester City\u2019s James Maddison made a good impression on his first England start while Brentford\u2019s Ivan Toney won his first cap as a late substitute, captain Kane making way once there was never any serious danger of a Ukrainian comeback.<\/p>\n
