England see off Hungary

England succesfully came through a tough international friendly against Hungary by winning 3-1 at Old Trafford tonight.Steven Gerrard and John Terry both headed home free-kicks in the space of four minutes early in the second half but most of the credit has to go to David Beckham for his wonderful deleveries into the box for both of the goals.


Pal Dardai pulled a goal back with a brilliant long-range shot. Theo Walcott came on to become England's youngest ever international, while Gabor Kiraly saved a first-half penalty from Frank Lampard but it was debatable descion because the replay showed that Gerrard had taken a dive.. But Peter Crouch rapped up the match in the last couple of minutes when he slotted home cooley past the halpless Kiraly.

Overall the match was a sucses for England althoughthere was a little bit of an injury scare when Gary Neville had to be taken off at half-time and Owen Hargreaves replaced him but the England physio's said it was nothing!
