England 5 - Andorra 0


England cruised to victory in their opening Euro 2008 qualifier against Andorra at Old Trafford. Peter Crouch put England in front after four minutes and Liverpool team-mate Steven Gerrard quickly added a second with a brilliant finish. Jermain Defoe was on target with crisp finishes either side of half-time as England dominated completely. Crouch headed home his second from substitute Aaron Lennon's cross after 65 minutes to seal an easy win, which was good. Why can't we play like this against better opposition and in major tournaments?
