Harry Kane has called on England fans to be united in support of the team after Joe Gomez was jeered by supporters at Wembley on Thursday.

Liverpool defender Gomez, in the wake of his spat with Raheem Sterling on Monday, was booed after being introduced as a substitute during England’s 7-0 victory over Montenegro.

The victory – in the Three Lions’ 1,000th international – sealed qualification for Euro 2020 and featured a hat-trick from captain Kane, but the night was tainted somewhat by the reaction to Gomez.

Manchester City forward Sterling accepted all responsibility for the physical altercation and sat out the Montenegro game as punishment for his actions – later defending Gomez in a Twitter post and telling supporters it was wrong to jeer the 22-year-old.

Kane – who had spoken with manager Gareth Southgate following the fracas and also addressed the squad after the decision to sideline Sterling was taken – said supporters should all get behind the team, no matter where their club allegiances lie.

“I know how important club football is with City and Liverpool and all clubs. But at international level, we are all England fans and the bottom line is that Joe is a great guy – one of the nicest guys I have ever met.

“He is a top professional and for him it is about moving on, training and looking at the next game.

“I don’t think any player should be booed so hopefully it won’t happen to Joe or Raheem if they play on Sunday.

“So for me it is about moving on. We did that on the pitch and the talking point should be the 1,000th game, a 7-0 win and qualifying for next year’s Euros.”
