England 2 - 1 Swiss

Postby Poolkew on Thu Feb 07, 2008 9:38 am

Fabio Capello got his England reign off to a winning start against Euro 2008 co-hosts Switzerland at Wembley.

Playing in a 4-5-1 formation, England started slowly in Wednesday's friendly.

But the impressive Joe Cole sparked them into life on 40 minutes when he skipped down the left and crossed for Jermaine Jenas to open the scoring.

Switzerland levelled when Eren Derdiyok fired home after the break, but Steven Gerrard set up Shaun Wright-Phillips to score from close range on 62 minutes.

Nervy beginning from England but they grew into the game and system as they went on.
Sorry, but Wes Brown is not good enough to play international football and I cant see Upson getting in ahead of the other england centre backs.
I thought england looed better with Crouch uprfront and SWP and rooney playing off him.
