GOD save the Kane.
This was Harry Kane's night and, even after a career filled with special moments, this deserves to make the showreel.
After so much nonsensical debate about the national anthem, the one thing England cannot do without is their Captain Marvel and his never-ending fairytales.
Kane had to mark the special occasion of his 100th cap with a special goal and of course he delivered arguably one of his best goals for England. His first was straight out of the Alan Shearer scrapbook, picking the ball up on the edge of the box before rifling it past Finland keeper Lukas Hradecky.
It was a belter. What a way to mark your 100th cap. That was sensational and it was soon followed by a team goal, rounded off by Kane in style.
It almost felt a bit mean spirited on England interim boss Lee Carsley's part to take Kane off with ten minutes left to deny his captain a potential hat-trick.
But Kane, who was presented with a golden cap before kick-off by fellow centurions Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard, was treated to a wonderful standing ovation.
