With the beginnings of a continental
tour, this is the first time England have played five matches in a
season. England have scored three hattricks
in a season for only the second team, the first being in 1892-93.
Fourth time two hat-tricks have been scored in a single match.
The first time England have scored 28 goals in a season. |
