And the Newcastle winger admitted: "I've got a taste now so I want more."
Gordon limped off at Chelsea (below) in front of Gareth Southgate earlier this month, with his club boss Eddie Howe admitting his knee injury "doesn't look good".
But less than a fortnight later, the 23-year-old sprinted up the list of contenders for a place in the Euro 2024 squad with a composed Wembley debut against Brazil.
On a night when few others staked a strong claim, Gordon revealed he received instant praise from the Three Lions boss.
"He was saying, 'Fantastic"." the Toon star said. "He was really pleased for me. I think he was happy with my performance which is always a good thing. Did he say I was on the plane? No! Hopefully he says that in a couple of months.
"I am pleased with my performance. But I'm quite hard on myself so I wanted to score and win. If I think like that, I can't do myself any harm. I know I played well but I hope for more. I've got a taste now so I want more."
