Bernard Challandes' troops even went 0-1 up thanks to a Valon Berisha goal just seconds after the start of the match. Only 34 seconds to be exact and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford was shaken. Michael Keane sent a direct pass to Fidan Aliti, who was immediately forwarded to his striker Berisha.

Match statistics say everything. the number of British bejibun attacks can be seen from the number of angles they get, five. Meanwhile, the Three Lions back line showed all its sophistication after being hit twice by a trap. But there is a physical approach with a little violence from the children of Bernard Challandes. Six offenses with three yellow cards.

As the opposing coach said, Kosovo came to St. Mary's tonight with the aim of playing offensive soccer. It was a very brave strategy, but it failed in the first half, because the crowd of players far ahead fell victim to Raheem Sterling's lightning attack.

Kosovo looked very dangerous in the last third of its field, but its defense was also torn apart in the same way. Bernard Challandes managed to reformulate his approach with two goals early in the second half. If it wasn't Harry Kane's fault after 65 minutes, the Three Lions would have 6-3 points ahead. But now the situation is thrilling, even if it is nearing the last 10 minutes.

With this result, Harry Kane and his friends controlled the top of Group A with 12 points, three more than the Czech Republic, who won at the same time Wednesday morning home victory against Montenegro.
