Emile Heskey scored his first goal in a competitive match for England since the 2002 World Cup as Fabio Capello’s side won 4-0 in Kazakhstan.
Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard combine with a short corner down the England left and from Gerrard’s cross, Man City’s £12m man Gareth Barry is unmarked at the far post to head into the corner.

Steven Gerrard’s cross is deflected and a backpeddaling Alexandr Mokin can only palm it into the path of Emile Heskey, who lashes home. Game over.

Johnson gets to the byline down the right, and powers the ball into the six-yard box. Heskey can’t connect, but Rooney can, sending an effort towards the top left. Mokin claws it out brilliantly - that’s a really outstanding save - but it’s all in vain, Rooney swivelling with his back to goal and hooking the rebound instantly into the net.

Mokin makes a wonderful close-range save from Cole, but again his work goes unrewarded. In the ensuing scramble, Abdulin tugs down Heskey and is booked. Lampard smashes the resulting penalty high into the roof of the net.
