England U21 2 Bulgaria U21 0.
The first impression is the skill on the ball of the Bulgarian players: good close control and good movement off the ball. But this England team is not full of slouches either with Walcott in particular causing problems with his speed and movement. Milner on the left is getting plenty of the ball, including the one he crosses for Agbonlahor to expertly head home at the near post.
Quick movement of the ball by the Bulgarians at the end of the first half sees them squander chances. Mattock backheels the ball off the England goal line.
It's Walcott's speed that leads to a great shot and brilliant save by the Bulgarian keeper. Ten minutes from the end of the match Walcott falls over Liverpool keeper Mihaylov and the referee award England a soft penalty dispatched comfortably past Mihaylov's right hand. 2-0.
