I never caught the match. I gather Beckham got his 100th cap. More importantly, I dare say Fabio Capello was not happy with losing his 2nd game in charge.

From what I gather reading how things went, it seems Capello wants the England players to play old style Italian football.

We shall see how that pans out over time.

Here are the match reports from around the web.
