Q2. I scored a goal on my England debut in 2003. Since then, I've played for Ipswich Town and Blackburn amongst other clubs.FRANCIS JEFFERS

Q3 Platts goal against Belguim, came in the last minite of extra time IIRC, and was one of the greatest goals I have seen, given the match, time, and pressure. Took the ball from a cross, over his shoulder and volleyed into the net at the far post whilst in full flight.
Timing (Platts, not the goal) was immaculate.
