Assist: Jack Wilshere.

- "It was the sort of silly goal that should never be conceded at international level, yet all too often is by England. Tranquillo Barnetta swung in a free-kick, Ferdinand and Johan Djourou jumped for the ball and missed, and Hart realised too late that it was going to be up to him to cover the bottom corner" Tranquillo Barnetta, 32'31:15
- "Never let it be said that England are a team who do things by halves, however. Almost unbelievably, they let the same thing happen again three minutes later. The aghast expression had hardly left Capello's face from the first time when Parker brought down Reto Ziegler and Barnetta stepped up again to make Hart look even more foolish at his near post. The goalkeeper did not get much protection from a wall (Milner and Walcott) that obligingly parted to let the shot through, yet even so he was caught unprepared by the accuracy of Barnetta's shot."

Notes
- Player InjuryDerdiyok seems to go down on the pitch innocuously [71:20], play carries on for a while until Milner puts the ball out. He is stretched off and replaced by Mehmedi.
- Penalty: Frank Lampard7th scored from 9 taken (77.8%). England's 102nd overall. 37th minute. Frank Lampard goes above Alan Shearer & Ron Flowers (6 each) with 7 converted penalties. "Capello now looked as if he was going to explode in his seat, though at least England pulled back a goal before the interval, Lampard scoring confidently from the spot after Djourou had brought down Wilshere in the area."
