Cool head: England's Frank Lampard (second right) scores from the penalty spot

Rooney was caught in midfield by Andrew Crofts and moments later was booked for a bad challenge on Joe Ledley, an indiscretion that rules him out of the next game.

Young went close with a dipping effort after spotting Hennessey off his line but the ball dropped over the bar.

At the other end Bellamy almost played in Andy King but Cole made a timely interception. Morison also broke into the area after turning Michael Dawson but his cross was cleared.

Wales looked a different side after the break but were almost caught out when a poor clearance by Hennessey allowed Young to cross but Rooney was unable to make contact.

Bellamy sent King clear with a fine through ball but the Leicester midfielder blasted wide.

A chance opened up for English-born Morison but the Millwall striker's control let him down as he looked for his first international goal.

Ramsey then showed neat footwork on the edge of the area but was unable to keep his shot on target. Lampard shot over for England but the visitors had clearly eased off.

The introduction of David Vaughan and Ched Evans for Wales failed to bring about a breakthrough and England played out time as the game became scrappy.

Stewart Downing, a late replacement for Wilshere, shot narrowly wide after a fine run in the 90th minute.
