Israel 2
Barda 10
Golan 90
Russia 1
Bilyaletdinov 61
Israel survived a torrid second half which saw their early lead equalised, and with 5 to go Isreal were nearly defeated when a Russian shot hit the post. Somehow, amazingly, the Israeli's, who looked out on their feet, counter-attacked and stole all 3 points when Golan pounced on a Cohen through ball to make the score Israel 2 Russia 1.
As it stands, the England team only need draw at Wembley on wednesday at home to Croatia, who have now qualified, to progress through to the Euro finals.
There are many who feel Steve McClaren should never have been given the England managerial role. They may well be right, who knows? What I do know, is McClaren may well not be good enough for some England fans tastes, but surely he is lucky enough for all of us at the moment.
I have heard it mentioned before, that football teams do not need good managers, what they really need is lucky ones.
Either way: Come on England! & Thankyou Israel.

Can you imagine the outrage if we lose to Croatia on Wednesday?

if England do get a result on wednesday, then unfortunately McClaren will stay.
it must be patently obvious to everybody that the problem with England is that most of the players (Joe Cole & Gareth Barry excepted) are unable to bring their club form to the England team.
i am sure that the vast majority of us would pick a similar squad to what we have (except Phil Neville) so the manager's main role has to be player motivation in order to get the best performance from the players and McClaren is totally incapable of performing this role.
