Harry Kane scored a first half hat-trick as England all but secured World Cup qualification with a 5-0 win against Albania.
A first sell-out Wembley crowd in two years witnessed a one-sided final home match with the win meaning Gareth Southgate's side only need to avoid defeat in San Marino - the world's lowest ranked side - on Monday to confirm their place in Qatar, where the 2018 World Cup semi-finalists will be among the favourites.
England showed their quality in a ruthless, free-flowing first half, with Harry Maguire heading in the opener.
Kane has also been far from his best at club level of late but the England captain put that right against Albania, scoring a perfect hat-trick as he followed up a headed opener with a left-footed strike and right-footed stoppage-time scissor kick.
The Tottenham striker moved on to a record 39 competitive goals for his country and level in the all-time goalscoring rankings with the late Jimmy Greaves on 44.
Kane also provided the assist for Jordan Henderson's goal in an outstanding first half display, followed by a controlled second period as England avoided exerting unnecessary energy in their penultimate match of the year.
