Gabriel is hero again after Euro absence

08 September 2007
The Aston Villa forward scored the second goal against Chelsea on Sunday and did the same at the Pod Goricom Stadium after Nedum Onuoha opened the scoring. South Africa-born Andrew Surman then came on for his Under 21 debut to tap home in stoppage time.
Impressive display: Gabriel Agbonlahor
Agbonlahor's commitment was questioned in the summer when he missed the Euro finals after the FA could not contact him to confirm his call-up, but he made amends last night.
Stuart Pearce's men opened the scoring in the sixth minute after skipper Steven Taylor headed back across goal, Agbonlahor got a touch to lob the goalkeeper and Onuoha headed home.
Agbonlahor added a second in the 10th minute. Theo Walcott slid him through and the forward finished confidently. England had to wait to the very end for the third. Substitute Surman struck after Dexter Blackstock headed into his path.
MONTENEGRO U21s (4-4-2): Janjusevic; Bozovic (Milic 46min), Kaludjerovic, Rajovic, Igumanovic (Tiodorovic 46); Zverotic, Fatic, Cetkovic (Djurisic 78), Jovetic; Vukcevic, Stjepanovic. Booked: Jovetic.
ENGLAND U21s (4-4-2): Hart; Cranie, S Taylor, Onuoha, A Taylor; Gardner, Noble, Milner, Derbyshire (Blackstock 90); Agbonlahor, Walcott (Muamba 63). Booked: Noble, Hart.
