Manchester City fullback Kyle Walker is proud to be an England goalscorer.

Walker scored his first goal for England in last night's 1-1 draw with Ukraine.

After winning his 77th cap, Walker said: It was a relief.

To represent your country and be as fortunate as I have this many times, it had been on my mind but now I can finally tick it off."

Walker added: I've played with H [Harry Kane] for a number of years now and I know he likes to drop deep and spot that run.

I saw the gap. I am pleased I could contribute at that end but my main job is stopping goals."
