Euro 2008: England fail to qualify as United players watched from the sidelines
It was a disappointing night in Wembley in the end, where England lost 2-3 to Croatia and hence failed qualify for next year’s Euro 2008. England needed only a point from this game but failed to deliver yet again.
Wayne Rooney (injury), Rio Ferdinand (suspension), Gary Neville (injury), Michael Carrick (injury) were all missing from the game, while Owen Hargreaves and Wes Brown were on the bench while England’s dream were shattered right before their eyes.
David Beckham played the whole second half and provided the cross while led to Crouch’s goal.
Now United fans will rely on the Portuguese duo Ronaldo and Nani to make them proud at the tournament. While goalkeepers Edwin van der Sar, captain of Holland, and Tomasz Kuszczak, Poland, will also feature for their respective national sides.
