England spirit fab – Capello
FABIO CAPELLO has saluted the spirit among his squad that has taken England to the brink of the World Cup in South Africa next summer following victory over Andorra at Wembley.
The 6-0 win means Capello's men maintained their 100 per cent record in Group Six and hold a ten-point lead with three matches left.
England looked disjointed at the end of Steve McClaren's reign but now have a togetherness following Capello's first full season in charge.
"We have created a group. This is important, the spirit of the group. We always play to win," the England boss said. "You have to win another game to be sure of going to South Africa."
Wayne Rooney got the ball rolling with an early header from Glen Johnson's cross. Frank Lampard added the second before Rooney added another, taking him level with Geoff Hurst's 24 goals for England.
Jermain Defoe came off the bench to score twice and Peter Crouch added another to complete the scoring.
