England V Wales Under 21's Match Report

England U 21's - [ 2 ]
(Milner 46)
(Bent 73)
Wales U 21's - [ 0 ]

England's super-sub Darren Bent struck again to beat Wales at Ewood Park - and take his incredible record to seven goals in only nine games for the Under-21s.

Bent ensured England stay top of their UEFA Under-21 Championship qualifying group with nine points from three games after he added to James Milner's 46th minute opener by heading home a Stewart Downing free-kick.

It means the Ipswich youngster has now scored five goals for the Under-21s in four games this season - and all as a substitute!

Newcastle's James Milner was given a new central midfield role by manager Peter Taylor, and responded with a performance of real maturity and creativity.

The 2-0 scoreline now puts England in a commanding position at the top of Group 6.
