In a 1-0 World Cup qualifying victory away to Andorra, England labored due to a lackluster performance and jeers from the crowd. After a dominant 83% possession, Harry Kane scored the game's lone goal in the 50th minute to propel England to their third straight win and the top of Group K. Despite the victory, manager Thomas Tuchel criticized the team's attitude and lack of urgency, particularly in the second half. The match was played in hot and humid conditions, and some players may have been affected by the end of a long domestic season. Jordan Henderson earned a surprise start in midfield, while Noni Madueke stood out with a strong performance, providing the assist for Kane's goal. England will face Senegal in a friendly on Tuesday as they continue their quest for qualification to next year's World Cup finals.
