Throughout a dominant display, the English national team secured a further triumph versus their opponents, with multiple squad members delivering memorable displays during the match.
Dean Henderson Was rarely tested to make before the break but then forced to intervene by Arbër Hoxha’s curled attempt. His sliding intervention on an Albanian attacker showed excellent reading of the game. 6/10
Jarell Quansah Examined by Albania’s main danger through their forward. Played more centrally to begin with then shifted wider after a teammate was introduced. Seven
The defender Advanced into midfield with the ball at his feet, a familiar role in the past. At times lacked urgency on the ball with the approach abandoned at half-time. 6/10
Dan Burn A constant threat at set pieces, typically, perhaps is a replacement for Stones at the back rather than alongside him. One wayward distribution after the break nearly resulted in an opener for the visitors. 6/10
Nico O’Reilly A further assured performance by the 20-year-old after his debut versus Serbia. Saka did not capitalize on full advantage of a gorgeous touch behind their defense. His position is firmly his already. 7
The newcomer His maiden beginning for his country. Slightly sloppy when playing out but his inswinging corners were a threat. A handy pace-controller available to the coach to call upon versus sides that sit back. Booked for a poorly timed foul. 6
The midfielder Set-pieces from corners and free-kicks caused problems. Enjoyed room to roam in left midfield but was in an offside position upon receiving with a chance to score. Given a deserved rest after an hour. Six
The star midfielder Played in a high spot down the right while also did plenty of defensive duties. Demonstrated moments of class and scuffed a shot high. Substituted late on for Rogers, his competition, after being booked. 7
Jarrod Bowen Had the team's clearest opportunity before halftime, his effort well saved by the opposing goalkeeper. As a teammate holding position, he was forced to stretch the play on the right although his balls from the touchline were inconsistent. Substituted for the final quarter-hour. Six
The captain The decisive figure scoring two more strikes in an England shirt. His first a typical poacher’s finish while the second a classy header after peeling away off his defender. At 32, his form is unwavering and the side have every chance next summer with him leading the line. Eight
Eberechi Eze Had difficulty to get into the game out wide. Had a decent opportunity after being played in by the midfielder however Strakosha denied him. Rashford produced a bigger effect when substituted. 5/10
