England ended their campaign for World Cup qualification in style on Sunday, with a faultless 2-0 victory over Albania in Tirana.

The win was secured by the Three Lions record goalscorer Harry Kane who chipped in with a late brace.
Sunday's result means that Tuchel's side have put together a perfect qualifying campaign, in which they've won every game, and the stats show they've achieved something that no other European side has done in history.
Not only did England win every game, but they did so without conceding a single goal.
Across the eight matches, the Three Lions scored 22 times and did not let in a single effort on goal.
No other European side has completed a World Cup qualifying campaign of more than six matches without conceding.
The achievement should mark out Thomas Tuchel's team as one of the favourites for next year's tournament, where the Three Lions will hope to win their first major trophy since 1966.
