WC 2014 Qualifiers: England Held 1-1 by Poland

Roy Hodgson's men played out a very unimpressive game to be held 1-1 by Poland at National Stadium, Warsaw in their World Cup Group H qualifying match on October 17.

Three Lions started the match with a 4-4-2 formation but after Wayne Rooney's scrappy goal in the 31 minute from Gerrard’s corner, Roy Hodgson switched to a 4-1-4-1 formation to protect their slender 1-0 lead. England were punished for their defensive tactics in the 70 minute when central defender Kamil Glik scored the equalizer for the home side much to the delight of 43,000‎ fans.

This draw leaves England on top of Group H with 8 points from 4 matches while Poland are third with 5 points from 3 games.
