Harry Kane’s late spot-kick secured Gareth Southgate’s men a hard-fought Nations League draw in Germany as the skipper became the second man to score 50 goals for England.
The Three Lions arrived in Munich looking to replicate last summer’s memorable Euro 2020 victory against Die Mannschaft and bounce back from Saturday’s shock loss to unfancied Hungary.
The second of four Nations League matches in this 11-day slog also looked set to end in defeat after Jonas Hofmann struck for Germany, who are unbeaten since that last-16 defeat at Wembley.
However, Kane found time to win a penalty and then step up to dispatch it and earn a 1-1 draw for England.
Molineux matches against Euro 2020 final foes Italy and Hungary follow in the next week after a night that ended on a high, two of just four matches England have before the World Cup gets underway later this year.
