Gareth Southgate paid tribute to his three-man attack of Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling and Marcus Rashford after they inspired England's 3-2 Nations League win over Spain on Monday.
Spain went into the contest knowing a victory would have secured their passage into the competition's final four, but they were in trouble at half-time at the Benito Villamarin in Seville.
Sterling scored twice to sandwich a Rashford strike, but Kane played a role in all three with some fine play, leading from the front as captain.
Spain responded after the break and did pull two goals back through Paco Alcacer and Sergio Ramos – who found the net with header deep into addition – but England's excellent first half gave them too much to do and Southgate was ecstatic.
