With the match barely half a minute in, Michael Keane had a brain fade moment. The English side, gently passed the ball around until Keane played an extremely poor pass towards Harry Maguire. Kosovo’s Muriqi intercepted the ball slipped a pass to Berisha who kicked past Pickford to score the first goal ever between these two countries in only 34 seconds!

In the minutes since, England have regained control of the match through two of their most prolific players; Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane. Sterling equalised in the 8th minute of the match before captain Kane provided the lead a dozen minutes later.
At the moment. England look good for the win. However, it would be a fool’s errand to count the plucky Kosovans out of the game.
