Wayne Rooney scored his scored his ninth goal in 10 games to place England on the right direction to World Cup 2014, and Steven Gerrard added a second to send a warning to other qualified nation how dangerous the Three Lions can be in Brazil.
It was a breathless and at times nerve-jangling confrontation with Poland at Wembley. Though, England finally got a relief when Rooney scored from Leighton Baines' cross four minutes before the break. There were more than 20,000 strong Polish supporter in the stadium to make the home team feel a little nervous.
England were then spurning a succession of chances. It took a captain's intervention from Gerrard two minutes from time to ensure England will take their place on the greatest stage next summer. Manager Roy Hodgson leapt to the air in jubilation, becoming only the sixth Englishman to take his country into a World Cup finals.
