"The passing has not been slick enough and this showing has not been good enough."
Terry Butcher, BBC Five Live Sport
HALF-TIME: After three minutes of injury time referee Toru Kamikawa from Japan blows for the break.
45 + 1 mins: A corner for Trinidad and Tobago which John Terry clears. The Chelsea skipper is soon back in action, scooping a volley off the line after Carlos Edwards beats Paul Robinson to a cross and Stern John races in looking to bundle the ball over the line.
45 mins: "Peter Crouch's dreadful miss brings a response from England's fans hardly designed to help his fragile confidence, namely chants for the introduction of Wayne Rooney from all parts of the Franken-Stadion."
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Nuremberg
44 mins: David Beckham opts for his right foot on this occasion and to good use. The only problem for England is that Peter Crouch's right foot is not up to much as he volley's the skipper's cross well wide with nobody near him - apart from a rooted Shaka Hislop. A great chance goes begging.
43 mins: David Beckham in left foot shock. Now we know why he only uses it to stand on as he chips a soft shot straight at Shaka Hislop.
42 mins: Steven Gerrard's long left-to-right long ball is turned back by Michael Owen but Frank Lampard spoons his side-footed effort over from eight yards.
40 mins: Peter Crouch and Dennis Lawrence jump for and an up and under. It's like watching a regional pogo jumping competition when these two 6'7" beanpoles go for a high ball. Lawrence takes top marks on this occasion.
38 mins: Trinidad and Tobago inch their way up the right with some neat, short passing before winning a free-kick. Kenwyne Jones climbs well but heads over another good Dwight Yorke delivery.
36 mins: Another delightful deadball delivery from Dwight Yorke. Paul Robinson flaps at the corner and Stern John steals in at the back post but heads wide, with Jamie Carragher in close attendance.
35 mins: Dwight Yorke's second free-kick of the match, again from the right, forces Rio Ferdinand to head over and concede a corner.
34 mins: The ball is worked to Frank Lampard. In space in the centre of the park he looks up and picks his spot. Unfortunately for England it's a few feet wide of Shaka Hislop's right post.
32 mins: Steven Gerrard blazes a shot over from distance. Trinidad and Tobago are like a Caribbean sponge soaking up all this pressure - although they haven't exactly been tested yet.
PLAYER RATER: Trinidad and Tobago are taking your early plaudits, with eight of the team ranking a nine or higher.
30 mins: "While Dwight Yorke is having treatment, Sven-Goran Eriksson finally ventures from the dug-out to have a long discussion with Rio Ferdinand - England certainly need some inspiration from the sidelines. It then arrives in the shape of Wayne Rooney having his first warm-up after 29 minutes, at last giving the England fans something to cheer - "Rooney! Rooney! Rooney!"'
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Nuremberg
29 mins: Dwight Yorke receives some treatment and walks gingerly to the touchline. He gets in the way of a Steven Gerrard shot and the PC way to describe his injury is a low blow.
27 mins: Peter Crouch causes a moment of panic in the box from a Trinidad and Tobago perspective, but his knock down from Jamie Carragher's floated cross fails to drop for either Michael Owen or Frank Lampard and Cyd Gray hooks the ball clear.
26 mins: Joe Cole finds Peter Crouch with a drilled cross but the striker can do little with it, getting his bonce to it but heading wide.
25 mins: This match is like the weather - cooler than what has come before. The action is not exactly setting the pulse rating and the tempo needs picking up.
24 mins: Another sight of goal for Trinidad and Tobago, albeit from distance, and Carlos Edwards fires an ambitious effort high, wide and handsome.
23 mins: Against the run of play Paul Robinson dives low off his line to pluck Dwight Yorke's cross from the right out of the air.
20 mins: Steven Gerrard is chopped down again and this time Aurtis Whitley is booked. What can David Beckham do with this free-kick? It's over the wall and flighted towards Peter Crouch at the back post, but the Liverpool man heads over under pressure from Wrexham's Dennis Lawrence.
19 mins: David Beckham's free-kick is straight into the wall.
18 mins: Shortly after the first chance, a first yellow card. Densill Theobald is the recipient after tugging Steven Gerrard back on the edge of the box.
16 mins: The first clear-cut chance for England. Joe Cole steps on to his right foot and Peter Crouch stretches to get a touch to his teasing cross but Shaka Hislop saves.
15 mins: "Coach Leo Beenhakker is leaving his seat in the technical area to shout instructions at goalkeeper Shaka Hislop. He seems concerned that his team has been so pinned back, but England have yet to produce the quality to pierce their defensive approach."
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Nuremberg
14 mins: Trinidad and Tobago flirt with a 4-4-2, Kenwyne Jones moving into attack from the right flank, but soon revert to their opening formation.
12 mins: Joe Cole burst into the box down the left and his efforts earn a corner. Dennis Lawrence clears David Beckham's corner and is again on hand to stoop low as Peter Crouch lines up a volley after the ball is played back into the box.
11 mins: Dwight Yorke stands over a free-kick on the right but wastes the opportunity flighting it well over every player in the box.
10 mins: Something to hearten Soca Warriors fans. Trinidad and Tobago get to grips with the ball and play it around for a while. Possession at last, but little purpose.
9 mins: England are repeatedly met by an immovable red wall of players. Steven Gerrard attempts to burst through it but loses control on the edge of the area.
8 mins: Michael Owen harries Brent Sancho into a mistake but Trinidad and Tobago get possession back. Before too long they've lost it again and England are dominating.
6 mins: England are biding their time in possession before Frank Lampard fizzes in a rasping shot. Shaka Hislop is unable to hold it but Michael Owen is unable to turn in the sharp rebound which bounces off his knee and wide.
4 mins: Steven Gerrard's quick free-kick is called back as Ashley Cole has lost one of his red boots. Well, not lost, he's found it, it just came off. David Beckham's free-kick does not get past the first defender.
2 mins: Jamie Carragher gets the first shot in on goal, a tame long-range effort after drifting in off the right flank.
1 min: Trinidad and Tobago opt for an early 4-5-1 as England enjoy the best of the opening exchanges.
