'Job Done' Says Cahill  (Sky Sports)

Gary CahillGary Cahill was satisfied with England’s display against Estonia in Tallinn where the Lions collected a third victory in as many European qualifiers.

Wayne Rooney’s 74th minute goal from a free-kick did the trick for Roy Hodgson’s men who remain top of Group E.

England have yet to concede a goal in their three qualifying games and despite Sunday’s narrow 1-0 victory, Cahill was more than happy.

Home skipper Ragnar Klavan was sent off early in the second half and the Chelsea defender said: "It was job done today.

"We dominated the game, maybe got a little bit frustrated in the second half as we were eager to get the first goal.

"On another day, we could have got a lot more goals, maybe been a little bit more ruthless in front of goal.

“But nevertheless we created a lot of chances and are pleased with the win.

"Credit to them, you know. They worked hard, especially in the first half to close us down.

"It is always difficult when a team gets behind the ball and gets compact. It is hard to break them down.

"But today I thought we did break them down, maybe just that final little finish was lacking.

"You have games like that and it is important we stay concentrated, not get too frustrated and we finally managed to get the goal, which has obviously determined the result.

"I thought we did that, we are pleased we've had five clean sheets now on the spin so that is going very well.

"We had a job this week to win two games and we have done so, so overall we are very pleased."
