Portugal's forward Cristiano Ronaldo reacts during the UEFA Euro 2024 qualification match between Portugal and Liechtenstein at the Jose Alvalade stadium in Lisbon on March 23, 2023. AFPPIX: Harry Kane became England’s all-time leading goalscorer as the Three Lions enjoyed a perfect start to Euro 2024 qualifying by winning 2-1 away to Italy on Thursday, as Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice on his record 197th cap in Portugal’s 4-0 win over Liechtenstein.
In their first match since bowing out in agonising fashion to France in the World Cup quarter-finals, England were dominant in the first 45 minutes.Another set-piece led to Kane’s record-breaking moment as Giovanni Di Lorenzo handled inside the area. England were forced to see out the final 10 minutes a man down after two quickfire yellow cards for Luke Shaw, but they held out for their first win away to Italy since 1961.
Joao Cancelo fired home the opening goal after just eight minutes but it was not until Bernardo Silva doubled Portugal’s lead early in the second half that the floodgates opened.
