England receive a good bit of news when it's announced that Mirko Vucinic, Montenegro's best player, is not even on the bench. The reason given is that he has a hamstring injury Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Wonder where he bought his strides from? Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Just two minutes in, England get their first chance – courtesy of a magnificant defence-splitting ball from Steven Gerrard. He sprays the ball from the right-hand side of midfield, just inside his own half, towards the penalty spot. The ball bounces in the area and Crouch sticks out a leg but unfortunately it's just not long enough to get a touch which would have deflected the ball past Mladen Bozovic Photograph: Tom Jenkins

After a bright start, England seem to run out of ideas and yet another England attack comes to nothing after Ashley Cole miscontrols in the box and the ball runs out of play Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Crouch uses his height to his advantage and beats Miodrag Dzudovic to a header but can't get it on target Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Just before the hour mark Rooney is put through by another excellent defence-splitting ball by Gerrard. Mladen Bozovic saves well from Wayne Rooney and then bravely dives at the feet of Gareth Barry to grab the ball before the England midfielder can pounce Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Ashley Young goes on a run into the area. As he cuts inside Dzudovic comes across and the England winger takes an extravagant tumble over his leg. The whistle goes but not for a penalty, as the referee books Young for diving Photograph: Tom Jenkins

Midway through the second half, Capello decides that he needs to bring some fresh impetous to the England attack which is looking more lacklustre as the game goes on. So he brings on Kevin Davies to provide a bit of a physical presence Photograph: Tom Jenkins

The Montenegrins on the other hand are celebrating as a 0-0 draw means they stay on top of the group, are still unbeaten and are yet to concede a goal in this campaign Photograph: Tom Jenkins
