Nations League: England Inflict Croatia With Biggest Ever Defeat After 7-0 Hammering

England put in their best performance under Thomas Tuchel as they inflicted on Croatia their biggest ever defeat thanks to a 7-0 thrashing in the UEFA Nations League on Saturday.

The heavy defeat surpassed Croatia’s 6-0 hammering in the hands of Spain in 2018.

Tuchel’s side were utterly dominant from start to finish, thrashing their opponents as they continued their return to winning ways after losing their first game of the international break to Spain.

As reported by talkSPORT, Harry Kane opened the scoring with a superb finish into the top corner after being slotted through by Jude Bellingham.

That goal saw Kane become just the fourth England player ever to find the net in six straight away games for England.

Bellingham then tapped home after 20 minutes before Anthony Gordon and Bukayo Saka got in on the act, putting the Three Lions 4-0 up and cruising at half-time.

England then carried that on going into the second half, with Kane scoring his second of the game after 53 minutes.

Saka then also got his second after pouncing on an embarrassing error before Morgan Rogers rounded the goalkeeper netted off the bench to make it seven in the final stages of the match.
