NewzOn Tuesday, England defeated 10-man Czechia (Czech Republic) 2-0 away to secure their first victory in the Nations League campaign. Anthony Gordon and Harry Kane scored the goals that broke down the stubborn hosts, getting Thomas Tuchel’s side back on track following an entertaining 3-2 opening defeat to world champions Spain at Wembley on the previous Saturday.
The fixture carried added pressure due to England's previous struggles at the compact Czech stadium, notably a 2-1 defeat in a 2019 European Championship qualifier, as well as the heightened scrutiny following their weekend loss to Spain. Meanwhile, the Czech side entered the match looking to recover from their own opening defeat against Croatia.
