The striker, who is England's all-time leading goalscorer, scored his 90th and 91st international goals in a 3-0 win at Wembley. Kane, 33, has no plans to retire anytime soon and is in great physical shape. He credits his success to self-belief, hard work, and dedication. The former Tottenham player, who is in the running for the Ballon d'Or, said he still has room for improvement despite his experience.",
