Montenegro v England: qualifier for the Euro 2020 – live! | Soccer

The accusations of racial abuse of which Raheem Sterling and Danny Rose were victims have clearly spoiled the mood. The good news is that Gareth Southgate has his back, which will allow both players to continue to enjoy the fruit of their talent. It was a beautiful victory. England was superb for a man and rightly ranked first in Group A after scoring five goals in consecutive games for the first time in nearly 35 years. Daniel Taylor reports from Montenegro …

Southgate moves to performance. "I'm really happy. The game was simple, our wingers were productive. Callum Hudson-Odoi showed what he showed us all week. The team, to recover from the delay, showed a good character. It was a good test.

To learn more about Raheem Sterling's breathtaking celebration. There are accusations that Sterling was the target of racist songs and that Danny Rose was also mistreated towards the end of the match. Gareth Southgate explains, "I have certainly heard about Danny Rose's abuse when he was booked late in the game. In my mind, there is no question. We will make sure that the report is official, it is not acceptable. I'm not sure yet about Raheem. I had a brief conversation with Danny because I heard what had happened there. I did not have a chance to talk to Raheem. Whatever happens, we will report. I do not want to speculate at the moment, but I know what I heard. We will certainly solve the problem the right way and we must make sure to support our players. "

Elsewhere in Europe tonight … news that could give a boost to Ajax's dream in the Champions League.

Ross Barkley, the hero of the two goals, speaks! "It was a good night for me and a good result from home. We showed character and set up a positive performance. "

Callum Hudson-Odoi, who is now the second youngest competitive starter for England after Wayne Rooney, adds: "I hope I did well. It's not about me, it's a team performance and we did a good job today. I made a mistake for the first goal, but we reacted positively. And if you make a mistake, you continue. I will continue to work hard in training and hope to have a good start for Chelsea. "

England was superb. A serious question was asked of this young team, who was late at the start of the first half and responded with panache. Ross Barkley, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Raheem Sterling were extremely impressive, although everyone contributed to a great performance. This is the first time England has scored five goals in consecutive matches since 1984, when Bobby Robson's team beat Finland 5-0 and Turkey 8-0 in qualifying for Mexico 86. The result gives England control of Group A, already leading with six points and a goal difference of +9. Bulgaria has four points ahead of the 1-1 draw in Kosovo tonight.

And that's it! Savic is featured in an animated discussion with Gareth Southgate and Harry Kane. He does not seem particularly happy. But England will be very satisfied with the work of their evening. There are many promises on this side, not there.

90 min +3: Not sure Henderson did a lot of harm there. Rose thinks so clearly, as he slips hard on the aforementioned Boljevic. A little revenge? He threatens to leave but does not.

90 min +2: Henderson and Boljevic booked, after Vukcevic pulled the shirt of the vice-captain of England, then gave him a peek. The two men find themselves face to face and the referee reserves the bad player of Montenegro.

89 min: Ward-Prowse plays well on the edge of Petkovic and wins a ball that he does not have the right to win. He's going to Wilson, who's going to get the ball further for Sterling. A cross illuminates the surface of the goal, but there is no one to touch it.

88 min: Henderson has been very clean and tidy since arriving. He combines well with Sterling on the left, then slips a pbadage in the channel for Rose, whose cross is not everything.

87 min: Ward-Prowse slides to the right and slips a pbad inside for Wilson, who pulls a Savic corner. Nice combination of both submarines. Ward-Prowse takes the corner himself, but it is easy to eliminate.

83 min: … then Callum Wilson replaces Harry Kane, who hands the captain's armband to Jordan Henderson.

82 min: Sterling celebrated this event by putting his ears on the crowd, a gesture that did not do very well. I do not know what kind of forgiveness he suffered. We can hear more of that. Whatever it is, James Ward-Prowse replaces Ross Barkley …

Kane is pressuring Tomasevic for that he is offering possession of Sterling, just to the right of the penalty area. Sterling drops a shoulder but can not be shot. It does not matter! It comes back directly to the hosts. Henderson makes a nice pbad in the right inside channel to free Sterling. He goes past Stojkovic and slips the ball under Petkovic and at home. A nice calm arrival by the star shaped Manchester City.

79 min: So much for the scary atmosphere in Montenegro. England has almost silenced home support. Some whistles while they stroked him, nothing more. "I have to say that for a decade or so, such a score would bother me, because I would know that it's impossible to reproduce it when it counts," writes Steve Scott. "Now, I believe that next year (or the month of June), we have a shot at winning that makes watching these games exciting."

77 min: Everything is gone Training session. England is happy to sit down, with Montenegro not going anywhere in particular.

75 min: Jankovic takes, aiming for the post far. Keane is forced to take a corner. There is not much going on at the chosen room.

74 min: Before the free kick is taken, Jovovic replaces Simic.

73 min: Stojkovic threatens to crush the right and is cut from behind by Rose. Cynical, and Rose is lucky not to be in the book. But it's a free kick in a dangerous place. A chance for Montenegro to load the box.

Ivanic crosses the central circle. Henderson puts one foot in the foot to sting the ball. Barkley takes possession of it and immediately sends Sterling free on his right. Sterling would have the right to shoot, but Kane is free at the center. He therefore offers a perfect pbad to his captain, who opens his body and sends a shot from the left foot in the lower left corner. Game over. England has been excellent.

69 min: ITV transmits very slow images of Harry Kane to the referee. Wonderful. A literal WTF moment.

67 min: Mugosa blocks the free kick in the wall. Danger ended.

66 min: Vesovic is clumsily encircled by Sterling, while he's not going anywhere in the left inner cbad. A free kick at 25 meters. Danger for England.

64 min: The race of Dele Alli is run. Having just returned from an injury, Gareth Southgate uses it sparingly and has replaced it once more after an hour of hard work. Jordan Henderson comes in his place.

63 min: Sterling presses on the gas and dribbles his way into the Montenegro penalty area on the right. For a split second, it looks like it's going to go to the end, but the door closes just before it can pull. What an exhilarating race, though.

61 min: Beciraj won his 61st selection tonight, a joint record for Montenegro. But his big evening ends early, because he is replaced by Jankovic.

It's a brilliant winged game of Sterling, which turns, turns and shakes, and reaches the cue line to the right of the goal. He cuts the ball for Barkley on the penalty spot. Barkley meets him for the first time and propels a shot to the top left. Never miss! What a night Barkley has: two goals and one badist in the last 30 minutes of play!

58 min: Vesovic thinks of scoring a goal beyond 25 meters, but hesitates in front of the rebounding ball and luck is lost.

56 min: England eliminates the game by stroking it in the back for a while. All very professional. "A penny for the thoughts of Chelsea's hierarchy," begins Kelechi Dennar. "This kind of public presentation of Hudson-Odoi's talent pushes him closer to the door."

54 min: Rose went to Montenegro and allowed Beciraj to dribble his way through the region. Rose has another chance to clear, but again, and Ivanic strips him, uncovering Beciraj in the left corner of the penalty area. For a second, an equalizer is inevitable, but Beciraj does not manage to sort through the feet and shoot at goal. England – and especially Rose – is drawn with one of them.

53 min: Barkley's second attempt is not a good thing, but at least it responds to the strict processes of the referee. This is the high level professional sport. Nothing special, please!

52 min: Sterling dribbles the right inner cbad and is knocked over. A free kick and a chance to load the box. Barkley takes it quickly and the referee asks him to disregard the order to wait for the whistle. The importance of administration, people.

51 min: Kane, quarterback deep, sends a pbad to the left for Hudson-Odoi, who beats his man by moving in with his first touch. Sensational! He George makes his way through the face of the area, from left to right, then pulls down to the right. A deviation takes its hit above the bar and the resulting corner is a non-event.

49 min: Hudson-Odoi, left, makes a center for the far post. He falls at the feet of Sterling who, surprised by the fact that the ball pbades beyond Savic, squats wildly over the bar.

48 min: Ivanic encounters a ball that falls to the right of the D. He does not have a lot of time, so pull a blow, shooting a ball aimed at the top left over the bar.

47 min: A small space for Sterling, discovered on the right by the very discreet Rice. He strikes very high at the near post, where Petkovic gathers with sure hands.

England starts the second half. They circulate it for a moment. Then Barkley and Vesovic get confused and briefly consider throwing their hands, but fortunately they think about it better. That would have been an explosive start for half.

Half-time animation. Think there's more than Callum Hudson-Odoi and Jadon Sancho in the pipeline. This is our Stuart James man on the under 21s.

… nothing is happening. England comes from the back to qualify at the break. It was already a start in all areas since Callum Hudson-Odoi, while Ross Barkley made one and scored one. England still alive.

45 min: Mugosa makes a nice pbad on the left to free Ivanic in space. Ivanic cuts for Beciraj, who opens his body and forms a shot up to the left of the edge of the zone. It is diverted to a corner, from which …

43 min: Montenegro sends his ball in pretty triangles on the left, Vesovic hovers dangerously. But Walker and Keane make sure there is no hole in which he can crumble. Finally, a pbad is chipped in the channel, but Ivanic can not finish and Pickford gets together.

41 min: England has responded well to this situation. They seemed shocked for a few minutes but found themselves beautifully. Another step in the development of this promising young team.

Callum Hudson-Odoi is 18 years old. He has not started in the Premier League yet for his club. But it is already a sensation in England! He takes possession of the vehicle on the left, then pbades Ivanic as if he was not there. He fires in the lower right, but Barkley clears one leg to divert the ball right in front of Petkovic. For Hudson-Odoi, no fairy tale goal, but it's more than enough. He is 18 years old!

37 min: Hudson-Odoi, who is effervescent to go from the front, is looking further to the left. He slips a clever diagonal into the eye of a needle for Alli, who tries to trap and light the edge of the box. Nope. Montenegro clear.

35 min: Hudson-Odoi, who breaks two men on the left and reaches the sideline, shoots a cross towards Sterling at the far post. Sterling should aim for goal but prefers to look for Kane to his left. He can not do that. The ball comes back to him and he tries to put a shot on the bottom right, but there is too much body in the pbadage.

33 min: Mugosa strikes a bouncing ball, more than 30 meters to the left. He really catches it and Pickford succeeds extremely well in gathering the crier plunger before Le Tissiers makes its way down to the left. It would have been a goal.

32 min: It was a magnificent free kick by Barkley, who has a very good international week. He took the opportunity offered by Eric Dier's injury to Wembley on Friday night. You finally have a good promise?
