Harry Kane made sure his record-breaking night ended with the headlines firmly on him, scoring the winning penalty as England beat Albania at Wembley.
The England captain earned his 126th cap, overtaking Peter Shilton as the nation's most-capped player, and netted his 92nd international goal to keep England's Nations League campaign on track.
A night of records at Wembley
Just 17 days after winning the Ballon d'Or, Kane was honoured on a night attended by Shilton, his family and Prince William. The 33-year-old converted a penalty down the middle to mark the occasion with a goal, his first for club or country since last month's award.
Kane now holds records for most England goals, most goals at major tournaments, most goals in a calendar year, most appearances as captain and most games won.
England's response to Albania's equaliser
Morgan Rogers scored England's opener in the first half, assisted by Jude Bellingham, but Petar Susic equalised after seizing on a Jarell Quansah mistake.
Kane then stepped up to score the winner, ensuring England remained in control of their Nations League group. A standout early moment saw him collect from goalkeeper Jordan Pickford at left-back and launch a long diagonal pass across the pitch for winger Anthony Gordon.
Top spot at stake on Sunday
England face Spain on Sunday, with the winner finishing top of the Nations League group and earning an easier quarter-final opponent in March.
