England didnt play well today,too many key players not really on their game,like rooney and gerrard,and carrick,im not really sure what his role was in the team as he was almost anonymous,im guessing he was filling the hargreaves role of defensive midfielder,but whereas hargreaves gets involved and mixes it up,carrick was nowhere to be seen and rarely ventured across the halfway line.
Having said that they got into some good sintuations and had chances to win the game,but it seemed it was just one of them days,for me englands best player again was peter crouch,his hold up play and distribution was excellent and he was unlucky in front of goal a few times. After this draw its important they get a least a draw in croatia.
Scotland pulled off the suprise of the day beating France,which means they have now won 3 out of 3,which puts them in a good position for the first time in many years to qualify from what is one of the toughest groups.
Wales losing 5-1 at home to Slovakia have blown any chances of qualification,likewise Republic of ireland losing 5-2 to Cyprus.
