No Ear Cheers by Maguire

In contrast to the Albania game, the defensive man left the ear cheers, for whom it gave a lot of criticism. Only the Three Lions played in the 15th minute after an own goal by Fabric with 2: 0 in the lead, the home player had scanned Sagas s shot.
Kane: Viererpack in 15 minutes
San Marino could not keep up with the big favorite, after all, there was a degree of Nanny, for whom it gave powerful applause, but Rams dale was on the post (33rd). Otherwise, only England played, which got a trade meter, as Rossi got the ball to the hand of the complaint arm. Kane turned centrifugally (27.).
The attacker was really hot before the half: first he marked the 4: 0 (31.), then the Spurs striker by penalty (hand game of d Dario) put the 5: 0 after (39.) and laced as already against Albania a coupe sleeve hat trick.

There were still opportunities: Abraham initially left a big opportunity (56.) before heading perfect for Smith Rowe, who shot his first country playing gate (58.). It was already a clear affair — and from the 68th minute and the traffic light card against Rossi, San Marino was also a man less.
The majority used the English to three other hits: Ming s met at the attention by head (69.), Abraham switched from rotation (78.), and Aka worried with a header of a few meters 10: 0 final score (79.).
