Harry Kane pledged he would play for England "for as long as I can" after winning a record 126th cap against Croatia on Thursday.

The England captain scored from the penalty spot as Thomas Tuchel's team won 2-1 at Wembley to guarantee a spot in the Nations League quarter-finals in March.

The 33-year-old, who won the Ballon d'Or last month, moved clear of former goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who won 125 caps during his long career.

Shilton was part of a pre-match presentation to honour the Three Lions captain, along with Football Association patron Prince William.

A giant banner was raised before kick-off with a picture of Kane and the words "England's Finest".

The skipper, who showed off his Ballon d'Or trophy to the Wembley crowd before the match, described the occasion as "incredible".

"I was trying to play it cool, I was trying to not smile too much, not give away too much emotion," he said. "Obviously I try to stay focused on the job."

Kane added: "I don't know if any of this has sunk in, to be honest with you, maybe in the winter break when I've got a couple of weeks off.

"I'll be on the beach somewhere and we'll try and reflect on everything that I've achieved, because these ones are probably the biggest in my career, without a doubt."
