Wales 0
England 1
Joe Cole 53
England squeezed past Wales at the Millenium stadium with a very scrappy 1-0 win. Joe Cole got the goal via a deflection from Gabbidon's head just after half time.
Sven changed the team around an awful lot after he brought on Defoe for Wright Phillips and I am sure he will be relieved to get the points.
Northern Ireland next, who are on a high after gaining their first win for 4 years today. Lawrie Sanchez will be hoping for a strong display from his side.
After today's performance from England, Sanchez may give himself room to look for a result from the home countries derby match up.
I am just glad the boys got the points and hopefully Sven learned what he needed to from the heavy duty shuffle of the pack. Should be back to normal against the Irish, with Michael Owen returning to international duty.

Garth Crooks said on England V Wales >>
"The 451 formation did not work for England today.
We need to bring in players who can fit into different positions if we are to stick to this formation."

When Sven took off Wright Phillips we were all over the place.
We confused the situation with our substitions unlike the Welsh, who drew strength from their subs injection of fresh legs.
