Scotsman watching England

"Wembley"
When i was offered the chance to go and see England at Wembley even though Scotland where playing an important qualifer against Norway that day i had to take the chance.The stadium is a wonder with fantastic facilities and brilliant views, even though it was against Kazakhstan a team England should beat that stadium was still at full capacity.A great expierence and just kept thinking how much i would like to see my team playing here one day-bring back the home internationals.

Alan Shearer headed in after 3 minutes to give his side the lead but Stefan Kuntz evened the score less than 15 minutes later and the score remained 1-1 after 90 minutes. In extra-time, Paul Gascoigne came very close to scoring a Golden Goal but missed a cross from Shearer by mere inches, Darren Anderton hit the crossbar and Kuntz had a goal disallowed for pushing. Neither team was able to find a second goal and another knockout game in this competition required penalties. Both sides scored their first five kicks but in the sixth round, Gareth Southgate had his penalty saved, allowing Andreas Möller to score the winning goal.
