England beat Croatia 2-1 in London to secure a place in the Nations League quarter-finals, with Harry Kane scoring the penalty that restored their lead after Croatia had equalised.

Jude Bellingham set up Morgan Rogers for England’s opening goal midway through the first half. Petar Sučić levelled for Croatia after an hour, before Kane converted a penalty shortly afterwards.

The win guarantees England at least second place in Group 3 of League A with one match left. They have 12 points from five games, three behind leaders Spain, who beat Czechia 2-0 in the other group match. The sides meet on Sunday in the final round.
