England put their 3-2 loss to Spain behind them with a 2-0 win over Czechia in Prague, their first victory of the 2026/27 campaign.
Czechia started brighter before Pavel Sulc was sent off for a reckless tackle on Elliot Anderson. Anthony Gordon struck soon after the interval, and Harry Kane added a second with 20 minutes left. According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, the performance offered several selection pointers for Thomas Tuchel.
Real Madrid’s Trent Alexander-Arnold earned eight out of 10, showcasing his passing range and assisting Gordon. Gordon was the standout at nine out of 10, repeatedly tormenting Slavia Prague full-back Stepan Chaloupek.
Kane received eight out of 10 for a clinical finish. Leeds United keeper James Trafford took seven out of 10, composed in possession and alert when called upon as Tuchel continues to blood him.
At the back, Marc Guehi and Trevoh Chalobah both scored six out of 10 on a quiet night that still yielded a clean sheet. Lewis Hall impressed at seven out of 10 and threatened a goal.
Miles Lewis-Skelly took six out of 10 and a first-half booking, while Anderson’s control merited seven out of 10. Bukayo Saka was six out of 10, and Chelsea’s £117m man Morgan Rogers seven out of 10 after hitting the post.
England climb to second in their Nations League group, three points behind Spain and level with Croatia. They visit Rijeka on Saturday, then host Czechia next Tuesday.
