England v Ukraine
|
England had made an unprecedented start to their world cup qualifying campaign. Having worn four games out of four, next up was the only remaining unbeaten team in the group - Ukraine at Wembley. With Peter Crouch restored to the starting line up, the McCarthy family made their way to the real home of football with the customary Dick Whittington Ale Trail beforehand |
