England head into Euro 2012 on a high after 2 wins under new boss Roy Hodgson.

Danny Welbeck's goal after 36 minutes was his first goal for his country and the second of the Roy Hodgson reign as England Manager. The three Lions didn't give the best performance and were rather defensive as they were in Norway, Roy Hodgson's team gave a very disciplined performance which featured new Chelsea star Eden Hazard.

Roy Hodgson now has to think about the starting 11 for his teams first game of the summers finals from his injury hit squad for the game against France a week on Monday.

The England boss who took over at the end of West Brom's season in the Premier League has another injury worry after he awaits results of Gary Cahill's scan on his jaw after he was barged into England's number 1 Joe Hart.

When Lescott had to go off and get cleaned up it looked like it was going to be a bad end to the game for the three lions when Skipper Steven Gerrard looked uncomfortable when he was taken off but both players were fine.

The talking point after the game was weather it will be Danny Wellbeck or Andy Carroll start the game against France on June 11 Hodgson has an option.

FT REPORT: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-1 TOTTENHAM

HARRY KANE broke Crystal Palace hearts as he headed home an 88th minute winner at Selhurst Park.  It was Kane's 35th goal of the season and his 150th career club goal, the goal equalled his record of goals for last season as he once again looks on course for another stunning season in front of goal. His header broke the hearts of Palace who were denied a precious point in the battle against relegation. One man who will be thanking Kane for scoring will be Spurs right back Serge Aurier who had missed an open goal a few minutes prior to Kane's goal. The result saw Spurs go above Chelsea into the top four on goal difference before the Blues's trip to Manchester United. The defeat for Palace see's them remain 17th in the table outside the drop zone on goal difference. They also play Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool in three of their next four fixtures. It was a tight and tense affair in the first half and Spurs were unlucky to be denied two penalties....
