england vs switzerland

England's friendly against Switzerland gave fans their first chance to see the team in action under new boss Fabio Capello.
I went along to Wembley to watch the match and see how England's performance went down with the fans.

More than 86,000 fans turned up at Wembley.
the stadium seemed to take ages to fill up though, and to be honest they didn't make much noise once they were in their seats.
One cool thing the fans did do, was too hold up the red and white plastic sheets left on their seats before the match By holding them up together they made the England flag. It looked really smart.
For a while it didn't look like either side were going to score, but then Joe Cole seemed to find his feet and his form.
He beat a player then crossed it to Jermaine Jenas who netted goal number one for England.
