England 5-0 Ireland LIVE: Three Lions claim 75-year first, Keane’s ‘bittersweet’ reaction to future son-in-law’s first goal, Carsley era ends with Nations League promotion
England sealed Nations League promotion with a record-breaking 5-0 victory over the Republic of Ireland at Wembley. Lee Carsley handed over the reins to Thomas Tuchel after overseeing a history-setting win over the country he represented as a player. The Three Lions officially sealed passage to League A, and crucially, have spared Tuchel from navigating a potential March playoff. England capitalised on the Republic of Ireland receiving a red card early in the second-half to win their third straight match against their old rivals for the first time ever. Three goals from Harry Kane, Anthony Gordon, and Conor Gallagher inside six minutes put the hosts in complete control. Substitutes Jarrod Bowen, and Taylor Harwood-Bellis then both got onto the scoresheet to ensure England had four different players open their international account for the first time since October 1930.
