Match No. 1036 - Monday, 26th September 2022, 7:45pm
Assist: Jude Bellingham. "It was Luke Shaw who offered the glimmer of hope when he rammed home from a Reece James cross. The left-back took a touch on his chest and got his body shape right to score." Luke Shaw3rd of 3 goals. Left-footed from 5 yards., 71' 70:59
Assist: Bukayo Saka. "When Saka turned on the ball and drifted past two opponents, Mount was on his wavelength, moving into a space on the edge of the area. The weight of Saka’s pass was perfect. Mount crashed a first-time shot past Marc-André ter Stegen." Mason Mount5th of 5 goals. Right-footed from 18 yards., 75' 74:05
Assist: Jude Bellingham. "Nico Schlotterbeck thought that he had him under control when Bellingham moved towards a Saka pass inside the area. But Bellingham was too fast, Schlotterbeck’s challenge too late and, although it needed the guidance of the VAR, it was a clear penalty. Harry Kane lashed it into the top corner. It was a glorious kind of madness." Harry Kane51st of 59 goals. Right-footed from 12 yards., 83' 82:57 (pen)

"...Maguire gave the ball away to Musiala before being bamboozled by a step-over from the former England youth international. The only surprise was that VAR had to intervene to ensure the penalty award." İlkay Gündoğan, 52'51:54 (pen)
"Maguire was robbed, Germany moved quickly and incisively up the field and Kai Havertz finished with a wonderful curler into the far, top corner." Kai Havertz, 67'66:15
"...it was a late handling error that blighted his performance. Pope had to do better with a routine shot from the substitute, Serge Gnabry. Instead he coughed it up to Havertz, who had a tap-in for the equaliser." Kai Havertz, 87'86:34

Notes
- Player MilestoneHarry Kane's 50th captaincy
- Player Injury"Stones pulls up while in full flight, grabs the back of his right leg, and drops to the floor [34:28]. Stones limps off shaking his head sadly...Kyle Walker comes on in his place."
- Penalty: İlkay Gündoğan"Masiala dribbles into the England box from the right. He looks to zip past Maguire on the left. Maguire sticks out a leg and brings his man down [49:26]. The referee waves play on … but VAR orders the referee to have a second look. He only needs one more. It’s an obvious penalty. A clumsy challenge. The referee mimes a TV screen, then points to the spot [50:37]. Gundogan...slots confidently into the bottom right [51:54]."
- Penalty: Harry Kane16th scored from 19 taken (84.2%). England's 139th overall. 83rd minute. "...VAR has spotted Schlotterbeck catching Bellingham on the shin with his studs while stretching in the penalty box [79:21]. I think this is going to be a spot kick for England! Yep, it’s a penalty all right [81:37]. Schlotterbeck was clumsy rather than malicious, but he could have hurt Bellingham badly there. Happily the England midfielder is fine to continue. The German defender is booked [81:55], and Kane prepares to take the spot kick. Kane lashes into the top-left corner [82:57]."
