In a commanding showing, England wrapped up another victory versus their opponents, featuring several players delivering notable displays during the match.

Starting Lineup

Dean Henderson Had little to do to make before the break before called into action from an opponent's curled attempt. His sliding intervention on Qazim Laci highlighted his game intelligence. Six out of ten

Jarell Quansah Tested against Albania’s primary attacker in Hoxha. Started more centrally to begin with later drifted out wide once a teammate came on. 7/10

The defender Pushed forward with the ball at his feet, as he has done before. At times lacked urgency when carrying play and the tactic abandoned at half-time. Six

Dan Burn A constant threat on corners and free-kicks, per usual, perhaps is an alternative to Stones in defense instead of paired with him. A careless pass in the second half nearly resulted in an opener for Albania. 6/10

The young full-back A further confident performance by the 20-year-old after his initial appearance against Serbia. A teammate did not capitalize on full advantage of a clever touch behind the opposing backline. The role is his to lose at this stage. 7

The newcomer His maiden beginning with the national team. A bit sloppy in possession though his inswinging deliveries were a threat. An effective pace-controller available to the manager to call upon versus defensive opponents. Booked for a poorly timed foul. Six

The midfielder Set-pieces from dead balls and free-kicks caused problems. Was given room to move in left midfield but was offside when the ball arrived in front of goal. Granted a well-earned substitution around the 60-minute point. Six

Jude Bellingham Played in an advanced role on the right while also put in the hard yards. Showed moments of class and scuffed a shot high. Replaced in the closing stages for Rogers, a fellow player, after being booked. 7/10

The winger Had the team's top opening of the first half, his shot well saved by Thomas Strakosha. As Quansah holding position, he was forced to offer an outlet out wide although his balls into the box were inconsistent. Taken off late in the match. Six

The captain The decisive figure with his seventy-seventh and seventy-eighth finishes in an England shirt. His first a classic opportunist's goal and his next a superb finish with his head having drifted away from his marker. Now 32, he continues to improve and England have every chance in the upcoming tournament when he's in the team. 8/10

Eberechi Eze Had difficulty to influence play on the left flank. Had a presentable chance when set up from a teammate however Strakosha denied him. His replacement had a greater an impact after coming on. Five

Bench Players

• Phil Foden (for a teammate 63) Looked lively and combined seamlessly with the striker in more familiar role, 6
• Saka (on for Eze at the 63-minute mark) Missed opportunities although his set-piece created the breakthrough, 6/10
• Rashford (for Bowen with 15 left) Active upon introduction and set up Kane’s second with a brilliant delivery into the area, Seven
• Anderson (for the midfielder 75) Looks established already, 6
• Morgan Rogers (for the star with minutes remaining) Not enough time to influence the game, 6
