The Czech national team suffered a clear 3-0 defeat to England in Tuesday's Nations League match at Wembley. Coach Santi's side remains without a point after three rounds and continues a negative run of five consecutive losses.

Vladimír Coufal unfortunately directed the ball into his own net in the 27th minute, opening the path to victory for England. The visitors' captain Harry Kane then added two goals, in the 40th and 57th minutes, capping his record-equalling 125th cap for England. "It was a night to remember," Kane said after the match.

Match flow

After the own goal, the Czechs came under greater pressure and failed to create a significant attacking phase. England had overwhelming dominance in possession (64%) and shots (17 to 5). Czech goalkeeper Lukáš Horníček was forced into action only once, while his counterpart Jordan Pickford kept a clean sheet without a save. England converted three of their 17 attempts, representing an 18 percent conversion rate. The Czech team received two yellow cards, for Michal Sadílek and Martin Vitík.

Coach Santi made substitutions during the second half, sending on players like Adam Hložek and Roman Macek, but the change did not bring a turnaround. The Czech selection has slumped in its last five matches across all competitions, scoring just one goal and conceding a total of 12.

Table and next fixture

After three consecutive defeats in the 2026/27 Nations League, the Czech selection remains bottom of the group without a point. The next opportunity for points comes in November when they face Spain at home. Check the full national team schedule and the current Nations League standings.

The match against Spain is scheduled for 12 November 2026 and will be key for hopes of a better placement. The Czech team must recover quickly from the negative run, which also includes June friendly defeats.

National team coach Santi confirmed after the defeat at Wembley that the team is going through a difficult period. "We must find our lost self-confidence," said Santi. He stated the Czech selection has lost five matches in a row, most recently falling to England 0-3. In the match on October 6th, after Vladimir Coufal's own goal, Harry Kane scored twice, taking his total goals for England to 91.
