Not sure if this is in the right forum but anyway:

England kept up their charge for automatic World Cup qualification with a workman-like 1-0 victory over Azerbaijan in some appalling conditions.

A combination of near freezing temperatures and strong wind ensured it was never going to be a night for pretty football, and the game only got the go ahead half an hour before kick-off.

Real Madrid front-man Michael Owen scored the decisive goal on 22 minutes when his clever move helped him lose his marker and gave him the space he need to head home Ashley Cole's cross.

Ireland's result against Faroe's was nearly as bad as this!

Wrong forum mate. Belongs in General Football in General Discussions. But no worries. Can't comment really. Didn't see the game. 3 points away are always welcome even if you played poorly.
