That scoreline is damned wonderful to look at.
The blokes are back on a roll. Although they do still have a lot of work to do to go on top of their group standings for next year's European Championships as they currently sit fourth in Group E with 14 points. The good thing is that they are only a win and three points behind group leaders Croatia with only 5 matches to go. I just hope that they continue to be in form as they have been in their latest two games. That draw against Brazil last week pretty much put back the confidence into the team as they faced the Estonian team last night and pretty much demolished their opponents.
The best thing that took place last night aside from the winning result was the first international competitive appearance since the World Cup last year of three of my fave players--Becks, Joe Cole and Michael Owen. My man set up the two of the three goals of the night--that's three assists from the four goals England had scored since his return. And damn if that Joe Cole goal in the 37th minute wasn't blazingly hot. What an amazing solo effort! Then there was the magnificant pass from Becks to man-tower Peter Crouch in the 54th. And then another in the 62nd for Michael Owen to put into the net. Yes, it might have been a Beckham pass but I was actually more excited by the fact that Owen made a perfect finish. I terribly miss this guy and my heart broke for him when he got injured early on in Germany last year.
Seems like the blokes are in back in above-par winning form and will be ensured of their place in the finals next year in no time. What a productive night in Tallinn this game was. Can't wait for the next fixture against current group second placers Israel. Feels like September is a lifetime away!
We David Beckham fans all know that last April he got a Prison Break-inspired two-foot long tattoo inked on his entire right arm. But then look at what I stumbled on today:
I jokingly say that he only knows how to make boys but if or when he manages to ink his left arm for a daughter, that's when I'll truly believe that this man can do anything. Kewl!
