England captain Harry Kane will be presented with a gold cap to mark his 100th appearance for his country ahead of the Nations League match against Finland at Wembley on Tuesday.

The Bayern Munich striker will become the 10th Englishman to reach a century of international caps — the first since Wayne Rooney in 2014 — and will look to improve on his record 66 goals for the team.

England confirmed Monday that Kane, who was wearing golden boots during a training session in the morning, will start the match against Finland, where he will be captain for the 73rd time.

The 31-year-old Kane has played in more games at major finals (28) than any other English male player and has played in more competitive matches (83) than any other senior men’s international.

Nottingham Forest striker Taiwo Awoniyi is out of an induced coma after undergoing surgery following a serious abdominal injury, British media reports said late on Wednesday.

The Nigeria international collided with the goalpost in the 88th minute of Sunday's 2-2 Premier League draw with Leicester City. He rejoined the game after treatment but was limping for the last 10 minutes of the match.

Forest, who said on Tuesday that Awoniyi was recovering well after surgery, have not yet responded to a request for comment outside regular business hours in Britain.

The 27-year-old was left on the pitch due to a misunderstanding between the coaching and medical departments, manager Nuno Espirito Santo had told reporters after the match.

Awoniyi had sustained a ruptured intestine in the incident, according to a report by BBC Sport.
