Ukraine drew 0-0, so we can qualify with a draw tonight.

Heskey is not a frequent goal scorer, but for two years, neither was Rooney, yet he was an automatic pick.

Most goal scoring forwards score more with Heskey than with each other (the Owen/Heskey partnership gets more goals than Owen/Rooney).

Defoe has recently been scoring when he comes on for Rooney. The idea that Heskey should be dumped for Defoe is, to me, a silly one.

All good so far, 1-0 up (which no-one actually seems to have mentioned).

Forster's stunt double scored from the spot after Lennon was brought down.

Owen and Rooney havnt acctually played that much together!

Id even go as far as saying Heskey and Rooney have played longer than Owen and Rooney!!

Should have taken the penalty again! The goalie was the officially allowed 6-8 feet of his line. :wrong:

Fuxking Lampard. If he had missed that penalty Gerrard would have scored the first goal and I would have trousered £ 180. Lampard you FAT f***.
