Eng 2 v 1 Uru

I got the score wrong but the result was right - just!!

England pulled another one out of the bag last night with a Joe Cole winner in the third minute of extra time. England were down 1-0 for most of the match, but Peter Crouch scored his debut goal (and about time too!) late on.

Still not a convincing result considering England are being touted as potential winners for the World Cup 2006!!

Also worth noting that they used their new red (circa 1966) kits last night - looking very sharp indeed.


FYI - minutes silence was for late great England Manager, Ron Greenwood
