SVEN Goran Eriksson's England this afternoon came from behind to beat Finland 2-1 and claim three precious World Cup qualifying points.

Michael Owen and David Beckham struck either side of half-time to break England's scoring duck in the World Cup qualifiers.

It took a spectacular late save from England keeper David Seaman to deny the Finns, after Manchester United striker Andy Cole had earlier missed a glorious opportunity for his country.

Photographs of the game can be seen below.
