This was another match England should have won and Freemantle was lefted fuming.
England had many changes to score but the ball went over the bar or saved by Gallacher.
England losed Dawson on the 34th minute through injury and Terry was subbed on. England will also lose Mills in the next match because he suspened through 2 yellow cards (sorry if I worded this badly).
