"A fantastic start under Steve McClaren. Everybody goes home happy. It was a very professional performance in the first half when the job was done and they killed the game off. Afer that it petered out but you can't blame the players for that, they've got big games coming up at the weekend. Stevie Gerrard was fantastic and Owen Hargreaves was excellent in front of the back four where he hardly gave the ball away. He has made that role his own."

2157: FULL-TIME England 4-0 Greece
And that is that. The Steve McClaren era gets off to a winning start, meaning the only England boss who has lost his first match in charge is Sir Alf Ramsey.
2155: There will be two minutes of added time in which England will look to add a fifth with their first goal of the half. Don't bet on it though.
2154: Our football editor gave top billing to Steven Gerrard, but what does he know about football? Owen Hargreaves is announced as the man of the match.
"Steve McClaren has permitted himself a smile for the first time. Happy at last and a good start."

2148: Giorgios Karagounis fizzes in a shot from the right which Chris Kirkland tips around his post. A fine save from the substitute who will be on loan from Liverpool to Wigan this season.
"The game is won and I think Steve McClaren has made a raft of subsitutions because the Premiership kick-off is only three days away. It's no surprise to me that Steven Gerrard and John Terry are leading the way on the BBC Sport player ratings; there's not much to separate them though my man-of-the-match is Gerrard because he's been involved in almost everything."

2146: Change number six for England and that should be that in terms of substitutions tonight. Wayne Bridge comes on for Ashley Cole. England team-mates this week, how much on them being Chelsea team-mates next Wednesday when the Premiership champions take on Middlesbrough?
2145: A first real chance for Aaron Lennon to run with the ball. As well as his pace he shows remarkable close control but is crowded out as he attempts to get on the end of a return ball from Peter Crouch in the area.
Who's ready for some football?
2143: It is back to a 4-4-2 as two more England substitutes come on. Darren Bent and Jamie Carragher replace Steven Gerrard and Gary Neville.
2142: Rio Ferdinand, sporting a close crop, steps in to head away Loukas Vyntra's cross from the right. An old cliche I know, but this is a game of two halves with the second so much more even. Maybe England have taken their foot off the gas.
2140: Not many Premiership managers have been happy about the scheduling of this match and we may hear more about this from Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho as John Terry looks to be limping.
2139: Steven Gerrard sets off on a driving run but Sotirios Kyrgiakos has the measure of him and makes a fine tackle.
2136: The three-quarter mark of the match and a chance for Greece to pull one back. Ioannis Amanatidis slides in at the back post but cannot connect with the ball. He slams the sodden turf in frustration.

And that is that. The Steve McClaren era gets off to a winning start, meaning the only England boss who has lost his first match in charge is Sir Alf Ramsey.
2155: There will be two minutes of added time in which England will look to add a fifth with their first goal of the half. Don't bet on it though.
2154: Our football editor gave top billing to Steven Gerrard, but what does he know about football? Owen Hargreaves is announced as the man of the match.
"Steve McClaren has permitted himself a smile for the first time. Happy at last and a good start."
Jonathan Legard, BBC Five Live Sport
2148: Giorgios Karagounis fizzes in a shot from the right which Chris Kirkland tips around his post. A fine save from the substitute who will be on loan from Liverpool to Wigan this season.
"The game is won and I think Steve McClaren has made a raft of subsitutions because the Premiership kick-off is only three days away. It's no surprise to me that Steven Gerrard and John Terry are leading the way on the BBC Sport player ratings; there's not much to separate them though my man-of-the-match is Gerrard because he's been involved in almost everything."

2146: Change number six for England and that should be that in terms of substitutions tonight. Wayne Bridge comes on for Ashley Cole. England team-mates this week, how much on them being Chelsea team-mates next Wednesday when the Premiership champions take on Middlesbrough?
2145: A first real chance for Aaron Lennon to run with the ball. As well as his pace he shows remarkable close control but is crowded out as he attempts to get on the end of a return ball from Peter Crouch in the area.
Who's ready for some football?
2143: It is back to a 4-4-2 as two more England substitutes come on. Darren Bent and Jamie Carragher replace Steven Gerrard and Gary Neville.
2142: Rio Ferdinand, sporting a close crop, steps in to head away Loukas Vyntra's cross from the right. An old cliche I know, but this is a game of two halves with the second so much more even. Maybe England have taken their foot off the gas.
2140: Not many Premiership managers have been happy about the scheduling of this match and we may hear more about this from Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho as John Terry looks to be limping.
2139: Steven Gerrard sets off on a driving run but Sotirios Kyrgiakos has the measure of him and makes a fine tackle.
2136: The three-quarter mark of the match and a chance for Greece to pull one back. Ioannis Amanatidis slides in at the back post but cannot connect with the ball. He slams the sodden turf in frustration.
"A fantastic start under Steve McClaren. Everybody goes home happy. It was a very professional performance in the first half when the job was done and they killed the game off. Afer that it petered out but you can't blame the players for that, they've got big games coming up at the weekend. Stevie Gerrard was fantastic and Owen Hargreaves was excellent in front of the back four where he hardly gave the ball away. He has made that role his own."
Danny Mills, BBC Five Live Sport
