The Chelsea striker scored his first goal for England in the Three Lions 7-0 win over Montenegro in a Euro 2020 qualifier.

Abraham who decided to play for England ahead of Nigeria scored the seventh goal in a game which also was England’s 1000th match.

Following the win, Abraham took to his social media page to show his happiness on getting his first goal in his second international appearance.

The 21-year-old page posted on Twitter saying; Southeast London boys to Wembley @Sanchooo10
🤩❤️ glad to get my first in the shirt tonight ⚽️🙏🏾 celebrated  @England1000th game in style 🦁🦁🦁

The England National team also congratulated the former Aston Villa striker on his first goal, while Jadon Sancho who set him up for the goal congratulated him also.

Abraham will have the chance to increase his tally when England travel to Prishtina to take on Kosovo in their final Euro 2020 qualifier.
