It was the two players' goal celebrations that superseded any display of football skills, however. Inspired by a recent Comic Relief sketch in which Gavin And Stacey actor James Corden advises Peter Crouch to abandon the robot move and instead do a "pull-the-rope" mime dance, the number 9 duly obliged.
For his celebration, John Terry teamed up with Wayne Rooney to recreate the captain's last haircut.
"I needed a haircut, but we weren't allowed to leave the hotel," Terry told reporters.
"I asked Wazza and he obliged by giving me a little trim. I'm pleased with it and I might go back next time. He was asking for a tenner for it, but I still owe him."

Pretty average performance but the result was great. For about 10 mins either side of the goal they were cruising but after the restart looked sloppy. Good to seem them get the result though and leave us in the driving seat to qualify.
Awesome to see the Robot back in action I think perhaps England have been missing that in recent times.

People are posting snippets of the goal celebrations to YouTube and they're getting a lot of views. Here's Crouchie doing his rope celebration.

It was nice to see England working well under Capello. Each goal for the team was marked with its own cute celebration. Rooney pretended to be trimming Terry's hair, having given him a real haircut at the hotel previously in the week!

A tenner for a haircut Rooney? Get real, Terry could go to Mr Toppers and get it done for £8.
England deserved to win the game, probably by another couple of goals, 5 out of 5 isn't a bad start to the qualifying run though.
