The Croatia-England Nations League clash is a high-speed highway, but one with traffic in only one direction.
The Three Lions have bombarded the hosts in the opening 20 minutes, with five shots, four of them on target. Unsurprisingly, quite a few ended up in the back of the net.
Harry Kane (also unsurprisingly) was the first to open the scoring, after eight minutes.
The striker, who rightly holds the title of the world’s most in-form player, got in behind the defence and tucked the ball into the net. The Bayern Munich man has now scored in every international match of this window.
Just over 10 minutes later, Jude Bellingham doubled the lead after assisting Kane’s opener.
Bukayo Saka swung a ball into the box from the right. It reached Anthony Gordon, who acrobatically kept it in play and crossed for the Real Madrid man.
England are showing their true quality and ruthless efficiency in Rijeka. How far can they go?
