The meteoric rise of Myles Lewis-Skelly apparently has no limits, because the Arsenal star only needed 20 minutes to mark his debut in England by breaking a national record.
The left back was on the bench of the Gunners as a relatively unknown in December.
But after a few stunning performances in front of Mikel Arteta, this month he was called to the Three Lions team for their world cup qualification against Latvia and Albania.
It was a huge show of trust in Lewis-Skelly through New England manager Thomas Tuchel while starting his new reign.
Lewis-Skelly, who only made nine Premier League-Starts, only scored his first professional goal for Arsenal in the thumping 5-1 victory of last month over Manchester City.
And he was at the top through the back of the net near Wembley to give England a 1-0 peace ahead of Albania.
Lewis-Skelly Timing his run perfect, grabbed an accurate through the ball of Jude Bellingham and slid the ball under the Albania keeper Thomas Strakosha.
The strike made Lewis-Skelly England's youngest debutant goal scorer ever, 18 years and 176 days.
That broke the record of Marcus Rashford – also starting in Tuchel's first game that was in charge – who scored against Australia in May 2016 and 209 days.
