Harry Kane has set a new record for England by playing in the Three Lions' match against Serbia.

The skipper of England led the front again in their first game of the Euro 2024 tournament on Sunday evening, surrounded by Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden. Additionally, Jude Bellingham provided support to create an intriguing attacking formation.

At 30 years old, he had already become the leading goal scorer in the history of his country. As he led England onto the field in Gelsenkirchen, he hoped to increase his tally of 62 international goals even further.

On Sunday, he achieved another record for his country by simply stepping onto the field, surpassing former defender Ashley Cole.

Kane has participated in five global competitions, beginning with his initiation in 2015, followed by appearances at Euro 2016, the 2018 World Cup, Euro 2020, and currently the 2022 World Cup with Euro 2024 still to come.

On Sunday, Harry Kane achieved another record for England by being part of the team lineup.

The captain of the Three Lions played in his 23rd game for his nation during a significant tournament.

Kane beat the previous record with the help of his five major tournament appearances, surpassing former left back Ashley Cole along the way.

When the game started on Sunday, Kane became the player who has participated in the most major tournaments ever, with a total of 23 appearances.

Cole previously held the record for participating in 22 games during three World Cups (2002, 2006, and 2010) and two European Championships (2004 and 2012).

Kane has played in all of England's matches since he scored against Lithuania during his debut. He was chosen as the captain before the 2018 World Cup and has continued to lead the team.

Sunday's match began with a slow start for him, but England was quick to take the lead with a headed goal from Jude Bellingham after just 13 minutes.

England played a cautious game at the beginning of the tournament, as they were expected to win and had a lot of expectations to achieve.

It is predicted that the leader of the England football team will exceed the specified figure, despite only being 30 years old and joining the team for the first time in 2015.

It is predicted that Kane will surpass Cole's score, as it is believed the England team will make it far in the tournament. Kane is also young, at only 30 years old, which means he will likely participate in more competitions in the future.

During the match against Serbia, he played his 92nd game on the national team, while Cole had played 107 throughout his career.
