England Dominates Malta 4-0 with Kane, Alexander-Arnold, and Wilson on the Scoresheet

England Show Strength in 4-0 Win Over Malta with Kane’s Penalty and Wilson’s Late Goal

England cruised to a commanding 4-0 victory over Malta in their latest international fixture, with Harry Kane, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Callum Wilson all contributing to the scoreline. The match, held at the National Stadium, saw England assert their dominance early on and never looked back.

Kane opened the scoring in the 8th minute with a clinical strike, followed by a goal from Alexander-Arnold in the 28th minute. The latter’s performance in the attacking midfield role was a highlight for England, as they controlled possession with 64% of the ball.

Kane’s second came in the form of a penalty in the 31st minute after a foul in the box, giving England a 3-0 lead by half-time. The second half saw Malta struggling to contain the English attack, but England kept pressing and were rewarded when Callum Wilson scored from the penalty spot in the 84th minute to seal the 4-0 win.

England’s defense was solid throughout, with Kieran Trippier, Harry Maguire, and Marc Guehi all putting in assured performances. Despite Malta’s best efforts, they could not cope with the attacking threat posed by England, who had eight shots on target compared to Malta’s zero.

Gareth Southgate also rotated his squad during the match, making several substitutions. Phil Foden replaced Bukayo Saka at half-time, while Tyrone Mings and Marcus Rashford came on in the second half for further reinforcements.

In the post-match analysis, fans and pundits alike commented on the interesting team selection, particularly the inclusion of Harry Maguire despite his limited playing time with Manchester United. Some questioned whether Mings, in his exceptional form with Aston Villa, deserved more opportunities.

Next up for England is a match against North Macedonia at Old Trafford, which will provide further opportunities for Southgate to fine-tune his squad ahead of more competitive fixtures.
