England sponsor Vauxhall release video to commemorate Ashley Cole's 100th cap


Vauxhall have released a special commemorative video in honour of Ashley Cole after the defender made his 100th England appearance.

The clip provides a look back at the Chelsea left-back singing the national anthem over the course of his international career.

Cole – who became a Three Lions centurion against Brazil tonight - joins an illustrious list of players with 100 caps including Peter Shilton (125), David Beckham (115), Bobby Moore (108), Bobby Charlton (106) and Billy Wright (105) and current captain Steven Gerrard (100).

Cole, 32, said: “I am very proud to have received 100 caps for England and grateful to Vauxhall for commemorating it with this video.

“The national anthem always makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up before the game and I feel honoured to have played for my country.”

Peter Hope, Marketing Director at Vauxhall, added; “As proud sponsors of Home Nations football we are delighted to celebrate Ashley Cole’s achievement with this video and congratulate him on his career for England.”
