England were amazing for once! As I'm very lazy read the full match report here http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/4420426.stm

What a great game. I actually injured myself by leaping off the couch when the third went in and landed slightly awkwardly on the floor. Best game I've seen since Germany I think - but even more dramatic and probably a better performance. To be fair Wayne Bridge was crap and I thought Gerrard was largely insignificant aside from the one cross, but other than that a good team performance. And no Owen "I'm a woman" Hargreaves either!
