Fowler raring to go 더킹카지노for fury when the ball was kicked away by a red-faced Smith who was then played back by Pat McIlwrick.

But it came to nothing as England took the lead after 40 minutes and Malky Mackay saw an opportunity when he drove towards the far post but his ball deflected off the hands of Mark Davies and sailed just wide from eight yards.

And when Davies made amends for his bad start with a tame effort, a penalty appeal made matters worse as his low drive was waved away by referee Gary Clark.

After that Davies was reduced to 10 men with seven minutes left, while the home side looked certain to score through the offside line as McIlwrick missed his shot.

Gareth McAuley had set up Joe Cojarvees.comle for the penalty and it was too little too late as Taylor-Cross should have been offside when he drove into the area from deep in midfield.

But Smith then hit the bar from the edge of the area as a second opportunity came but he was too eager and his low effort went just wide from seven yards.

With six minutes still to go, the home side finally managed to equalise through a superb volley from Malky Mackay but his effort hit the bar from 14 yards out.

Hogans took advantage as the momentum swung his way and his low shot curled just wide from 30 yards.

After seeing Smith brought down in the box by the home defence, the away side tried to regain the lead when Alex Smalling picked out the loose ball and beat Mackay with his shot.

Taylor-Cross was given the game ball but his attempt to shoot with his feet from 16 yards was blocked by Clark and he had to be brought down just before his initial strike was cleared off the line.

But England were unable to put an end to what was already the finest opening-day victory of their history.

Mackay’s men are now seven points ahead of second-placed Wales, while Scotland travel to face England in Dublin on Friday night.
