Assist: David Beckham. "England win a free-kick wide on the right. David Beckham sends it into the penalty area, where, for the second time in a week, lion-hearted England captain John Terry once again finds himself unable to remain on his feet. Instead he rises like a salmon and heads the ball into the bottom right-hand corner." John Terry4th of 6 goals. Header from 12 yards., 38' 37:19
Assist: Danny Mills. "Some lovely passing football from England, started and finished by Steven Gerrard, who times his run through the centre perfectly to latch on to a pass along the floor from Gareth Barry and slot it past Brad Guzan." Steven Gerrard13th of 21 goals. , 59'
