England cruised to an expected and easy 6-0 win over Andorra at Wembley to give Fabio Capello a 100 per cent record in World Cup qualifying. More
90' The announcer names Glen Johnson as man-of-the-match for his involvement in four of the goals. Defoe heads over from close range, and the final whistle goes, a 6-0 win for England who have won seven out of seven, scored 26 and conceded four.
88' A nice touch as the retiring Koldo is given a round of applause by the England fans and there are handshakes all round as Jose Antonio comes on in the veteran keeper's place.
80' Crouch with a flick wide to Defoe who races towards goal and tries a shot, it's blocked and Andorra's defenders try to shepherd it back to Koldo but they made a sow's ear of it and it bounces off Crouch's foot and past the stricken keeper. 6-0.
79' ANDORRA SUB: Fernandez, a defender, on for lone striker Silva. Ugh.
78' Walcott is free on the right and he drills it low FOR CROUCH WHO MUST SCORE BUT THROUGH HIS LEGS AND AWAY! How has Crouch not scored against these jokers?
76' Beckham to take this then, he swings it over the ball, Koldo spills it and Defoe with the rebound for 5-0! Two goals in three minutes for the Spurs man.
73' Beckham takes a clever quick corner to Johnson on the right corner, crosses it in for Defoe and he heads it into the bottom left for 4-0.
70' Johnson comes forward, short to Lampard who stands it up and puts it wide to Walcott who crosses low and Defoe must score but a good save again by Koldo! Flag was up, Defoe was just offside.
67' Beckham with the corner and Terry rises but heads wide! He had three defenders on him. Andorra may not be great but they're big strong lads and they showed it to muscle Terry out of a goal there.
65' Young with a good cross from the left which wreaks havoc, Crouch can't finish and Lampard tries a flick over the line but the flag is up for offside.
64' Ildefons Lima booked.
63' ENGLAND SUB: Bridge on for former Chelsea team-mate Ashley Cole.
62' Walcott runs down the right and wins a corner. Taken short to Beckham who keeps the ball, into Lampard who shimmies and shoots from range, Koldo parries and Walcott can finish but it's weak and blocked by Crouch with his back to goal!
59' The free-kick is cleared, Johnson gets it and back wide to Beckham who crosses AND LESCOTT UNMARKED FAR POST BUT HE MISSES THE FINISH!
58' Beckham shapes to shoot but clips a ball in for Crouch who takes it on the chest and volleys but a deflection and over!
49' Defoe is in on the right and he must score but he scuffs the low shot and it drags wide of the far post! The angle was tight but he had time and, as so often in an England shirt, he panicked a touch.
47' ANDORRA: Toni Lima comes off for the last time, having briefly worn the captain's armband for the start of the second half. Vales on.
46' Second half underway as Young turns and shoots poorly up in the air and wide.
46' ENGLAND SUBS: Two half-time changes and annoying for Rooney, on a hat-trick, as he is replaced by Defoe. Ashley Young is on for Gerrard.
45+1 Half-time is signalled, England lead 3-0.
44' The corner is cleared, Lescott chased it down there's some nonsense with Crouch and an Andorra player, Lima I think, tangling, there's some afters from Andorra and Koldo is booked for dissent.
40' Xavi Andorra booked for a tug back 10 yards from the D, to the left, Beckham will take the free-kick...
39' Johnson crosses in and Rooney smashes it into the top right with an instinctive volley for his second and England's third. Rooney now the leading goalscorer in Europe with eight goals in seven qualifying games.
29' Johnson hugging the right, he cuts inside and plays it straight through to Walcott who sprints past Sonarjee and hits the byline before cutting it back to Lampard who makes it 2-0 with a low drive into the bottom right.
11' Gerrard on the left after a super Beckham crossfield pass, he cuts inside and drills a shot low at the near post but tipped around in style by Koldo, who has done really well so far in his last game for Andorra.
4' Johnson in loads of space on the right, he crosses towards Rooney at the far post and Rooney heads into the ground past Koldo for 1-0 and his seventh goal in as many games.
3' Johnson comes forward after the corner is cleared, he lofts it into the box and Walcott is in and he thrashes a half-volley on goal but another great save by Koldo and ROONEY ON THE LINE BUT IT BOUNCES OFF HIS HEAD, AGAINST THE BAR AND AWAY! Koldo saves Andorra again.
2' Rooney with a great turn on to Gerrard's through ball and he chips it towards the top right but a great save by Koldo, tipped over for a corner!!
1' Match underway at Wembley! England start by pumping it into the arms of Koldo... then Gerrard gets forward and he's in but a superb slide tackle by Ildefens Lima robs Gerrard of a clear chance to score.
- The match tonight goes ahead despite London's inability to avert or at least manage a deeply unpopular tube strike which our Jim White feels may have implications to our World Cup 2018 bid. Fortunately for fans, you can get to Wembley easily enough using the recently-developed overground system that is actually quite good. Read Jim White's article here!
