FULL TIME

90+2'Yellow cardMirko Vucinic.

90'Goal scoredAndrija Delibasic. Right on full-time Montenegro get a crucial, and deserved, equaliser. Delibasic climbs high at the back post to meet Stefan Savic's right-wing cross and seemingly head his country into the play-offs.

90+1'Yellow cardAndrija Delibasic. The goalscorer is subsequently booked for his celebration.

88'Yellow cardStevan Jovetic. The Montenegrin is cautioned for simulation inside the England penalty area.

87'Hart does brilliantly to turn away Milorad Pekovic's angled drive as Montenegro really put England under pressure late on.

84'As Montenegro seek an equaliser that would book their play-off place, substitute Dejan Damjanovic cracks an overhead kick just over the bar, but the flag was up for offside anyway.

82'Montenegro fail to properly clear an England corner and Downing rifles a right-footed shot over the bar from a presentable distance.

54'Montenegro have started this half the brighter of the two sides and Beciraj has another go at goal, but slices his shot horribly wide.

51'Heart-in-the-mouth time for Phil Jones as he goes to ground inside the box in an attempt to dispossess Stevan Jovetic. The referee waves away Motenegro appeals for a penalty.

49'From the edge of the England area, Fatos Beciraj fires in the first shot of the second half. Joe Hart is down quickly to save.

HALF TIME

44'Goal scoredElsad Zverotic. Montenegro have a goal back, just seconds before the break. A ball in from the right finds Elsad Zverotic in the area, and his shot takes a sizeable deflection to just sneak past Joe Hart and into the bottom corner.

43'Mladen Kascelan fires in a 30 yard shot, but is well off target as Montenegro look to find a way back into the game.

40'Jones wins another free-kick for his side after bringing the ball purposefully out of defence. Impressive again from the debutant.

33'Jovetic tries his luck with a 25 yard shot, but fails to reduce the arrears and is well off-target.

31'Goal scoredDarren Bent. A breakaway goal for the Three Lions. Rooney plays Young in down the left and his centre is converted from close range by Bent. Clinical from England.

28'Montenegro force a corner, as Ashley Cole has to head a cross from Vucinic behind.

18'This time it's Bent who slides a low cross into the area after finding space in the right channel, but Miodrag Dzudovic gets a crucial touch in just before it reaches Rooney.

17'Walcott tries his luck with a left-footer after cutting inside from the right, but his shot is blocked on the edge of the area.

10'Goal scoredAshley Young. England take the lead and it's Young on the mark again. A flowing move across the pitch sees Rooney pick out Walcott on the right. He plays a pacy ball to the far post for Young who makes no mistake by heading past Bozovic. Great start for Capello's men.

08'Some neat skill by Mirko Vucinic sees him break into the box, but England had enough defenders to ensure there was no real danger with Gary Cahill eventually clearing. It certainly gave the home fans some encouragement though.

06'A fine save from Bozovic denies Walcott an early goal, as he strikes well at goal after latching onto Darren Bent's knock-down in the area.

05'A third successive corner! This time when Ashley Young's shot is deflected behind. Bright start from the Three Lions.

04'Another corner for England, this time from the left-hand side as Walcott is tackled in the area.

02'England have an early corner, as Phil Jones breaks down the right and sees his cross-shot turned over the bar by Bozovic.

00'The national anthems have been sung, and we're ready for action in Podgorica.

KOIt's England who get us kicked-off in a rainy and damp stadium.
