Match No. 857 - Saturday, 13th October 2007, 3:00pm
Assist: Micah Richards. "For the first, [Poom] was beaten through his legs by Wright-Phillips - who had been linking brilliantly with the overlapping Micah Richards from the off - after the winger ran on to his right-back's through ball in the box. The shot was good, sharp and angled, but one Poom should have dealt with." Shaun Wright-Phillips3rd of 6 goals. Right-footed from 8 yards., 11' 10:05 - Assist: Joe Cole. "England's second, and Wayne Rooney's first competitive strike for his country since Euro 2004, followed a period of flowing passing. Pinging the ball between them, waiting for the opening, Joe Cole dashed past Aleksandr Dmitrijev down the left, centred and Poom would easily have covered Rooney's weak and mis-hit shot but for a deflection that sent the ball into the bottom corner." Wayne Rooney13th of 53 goals. Left-footed from 15 yards., 32' 31:21
- Assist: Ashley Cole. "If that was unfortunate, the third goal, coming 90 seconds later was almost comical. An own goal from the midfielder Taavi Rahn who, attempting to head clear, deflected an innocuous Ashley Cole cross from outside the area past poor Poom." Taavi Rähn, 34' (og)32:57
