When asked how the England captain reacted to not being named in the starting XI, Carsley explained that Kane had no issues with it

Interim manager Lee Carsley made a huge call to drop Harry Kane from the England starting XI needing to beat Greece by multiple goals if they wish to reclaim the top spot in their group with one match to go.

Carsley will take charge of Sunday's home clash with the Republic of Ireland, before he hands over the reins to England's new permanent manager, Thomas Tuchel. The Three Lions will enter the final matchday in top spot of their UEFA Nations League group, with goal difference giving them the advantage over second-placed Greece.
