Phew!  A bit of a close one.  I really enjoyed the last 10 minutes, and was relieved to see Gerrard do what we know he can with a fantastic final goal in the 91st minute, following a good head in by Crouch in the 83rd.  Still disappointed in Frank Lampard’s inability to get a shot on target.  I’m not going to talk about Michael Owen today.  Could have been really bad, and I’m expecting more in the next round, but Rooney’s back, Lennon did well and WE’RE THROUGH.  So, today, overall, I’m happy, although this consistent lack of draws is really beginning to make me feel a bit dizzy.Â
Commentary Watch:  The first England game on ITV.  I really have nothing to say.  Southgate clearly can’t quip like Lawrenson.
