A review showed Cutler had fumbled

    LONDON -- Englands gamble on Andros Townsend paid off as the winger capped an impressive debut by scoring in a 4-1 victory over Montenegro on Friday that kept the host in control of its pursuit of World Cup qualification. [b]Max Scherzer Jersey[/b] . Heading into the final round of matches in Group H, England has a one-point lead over Ukraine, which beat Poland 1-0, with both ensured of at least making the playoff to reach the finals in Brazil. With Ukraine expected to easily overcome bottom-place San Marino on Tuesday, England will have to beat Poland on Tuesday to qualify automatically. "The job is half done if we want to qualify direct," England coach Roy Hodgson said. England only came to life after the break at Wembley Stadium, when Wayne Rooney put the hosts in front and Montenegro midfielder Branko Boskovic turned the ball into his own net. It seemed like there would be an anxious end when Dejan Damjanovic pulled one back for the visitors but Townsend then scored and Daniel Sturridge netted from the penalty spot in stoppage time. Hodgson pulled off a surprise by naming Townsend in the starting lineup for his first cap, capping a whirlwind year for the Tottenham winger. Four months ago, Townsend withdrew from the squad for the European under-21s championship before receiving a one-month ban and a fine of 18,000 pounds ($27,000) for breaching betting regulations. But a strong start to the season with Tottenham saw Townsend force his way into the senior international fold. From the start Friday, the 22-year-old Townsend used his pace down the right flank to trouble the visiting defence. "It cant be easy for a young player making his debut," Hodgson said. "He played with calmness and composure." Although Montenegro began to crowd out Townsend he managed to pick out Frank Lampard, who set up Steven Gerrard as the pressure built from Hodgsons side. England was facing a goalkeeper who, like Townsend, recently served a ban for breaching integrity rules. Vukasin Poleksics two-year suspension was for failing to report that match-fixers approached him before a Champions League match. Poleksic didnt have a save to make until the 22nd minute, blocking Welbeck from a tight angle, and Joe Hart in the England goal was similarly quiet. Englands best opening was squandered just before halftime when Townsend had a low shot spilled and Rooney bundled the follow-up into the sidenetting. "It was a tough game at halftime, you saw how difficult to break down they were, and well organized," Hodgson said. But Townsend ensured England made the perfect start to the second half after charging down the right and whipping in a cross that was half-cleared. Welbecks resulting shot was parried but Rooney managed to scuff the rebound into the net in the 49th minute. It was the Manchester United strikers sixth goal in five qualifiers. Englands Kyle Walker was then booked for a shirt-tug and the right back is now suspended for Tuesdays finale. But luck turned back in Englands favour in the 62nd. A backheel from Sturridge released Welbeck on the left flank, and his cross was inexplicably turned into the net by Boskovic when under no pressure. England had chances to extend its lead through Sturridge and Welbeck, and seemed to be cruising when Montenegro pulled one back to ensure there would be an anxious end. Against the run of play, Dejan Damjanovic turned Fatos Beqirajs shot beyond Hart in the 72nd. But the two-goal lead was restored six minutes later. Townsend picked up ball near halfway line and ran through the defence before sending a swerving shot in off the right hand post. The three points were no longer in doubt, and the gloss was put on the win by Sturridges penalty after the Liverpool striker was brought down. In Kharkiv, the only goal was scored by Andriy Yarmolenko in the 64th minute, ending Polands qualification hopes. The Ukraine winger curved a left-footed shot from the centre of the box after being left alone by the Polish defence who instead risked intercepting Yevhen Konopolyankas cross.

Then they had to hold their breath before hanging on for a 27-19 victory Monday night. Jay Cutler threw two touchdown passes to Martellus Bennett and Ryan Mundy returned an interception 45 yards for a score. Cutler finished 23 of 38 for 225 yards and Alshon Jeffery caught eight passes for 105 yards for the Bears, who got a 45-yard field goal from Robbie Gould to make it an eight-point game with 3:10 remaining. The Jets (1-2) had one last opportunity to tie, getting into Bears territory on Geno Smiths 51-yard pass to Greg Salas. But Jeremy Kerley was out of bounds when he caught Smiths desperation fourth-down heave from the Bears 9. Cutler took a knee three times to seal the victory for the Bears (2-1). "Right now I feel Im very intelligent on the field," said Bennett, now in his seventh NFL season. "The game is getting a lot easier. I know the offence better. I know what Jay wants." Smith was 26 of 43 for 316 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions -- and nearly had a few others. Kerley finished with seven catches for 81 yards, and almost came up with a diving grab off a tipped pass in the end zone on the final drive. "There were some plays you wish you could have back," Jets coach Rex Ryan said. The Jets lost wide receiver Eric Decker in the first half to a hamstring injury after he was questionable for the game with tightness in the hamstring. The Bears went up 14-0 just over 5 minutes into the game. On New Yorks second play from scrimmage, Smith didnt see Mundy lurking in the flat as he floated a screen pass to Chris Johnson. Mundy stepped in front of the toss and ran untouched into the end zone for a 45-yard score. It was the sixth-year veterans third career interception, and first score. After the Jets stopped the Bears on three plays on their first offensive series, rookie Jalen Saunders dropped Patrick ODonnells punt at his 40 and it was recovered by Ahmad Dixon. Cutler threw deep down the right sideline to Jeffery one play later, and cornerback Darrin Walls was called for pass interference to put the ball at the Jets 7. Three plays later, Cutler rolled right and found Bennett in the back of the end zone to make it 14-0 -- and get the MetLife Stadium crowd booing. [b]Daniel Murphy Jersey[/b]. "There is a little lack of respect for me as a tight end," Bennett said. "Its kind of like a chip on my shoulder. They never really mention me." The Jets got on the scoreboard on their next possession, capping an 11-play, 55-drive with Nick Folks 43-yard field goal. Chicago answered with a 15-play, 79-yard drive helped by cornerback Antonio Allens holding penalty on a third-down incompletion by Cutler. Goulds 24-yard field goal gave the Bears a 17-3 lead 66 seconds into the second quarter. The Jets got their next series off to a good start with a 43-yard completion to rookie tight end Jace Amaro, but they stalled in the red zone again, settling for a 28-yard field goal. New York got closer with a 77-yard drive on which Kerley accounted for 51 -- including a 19-yard touchdown that cut the deficit 17-13. A video review reversed a call late in the half on which the Jets might have taken the lead. Cutler was sacked by David Harris and lost the ball, but was declared down by contact. A review showed Cutler had fumbled, but Demario Davis return to the end zone was negated because the whistle had blown. The Jets then went three-and-out. Chicago opened the second half aggressively, marching 80 yards on six plays and capping the drive with Bennetts 13-yard touchdown catch to make it 24-13. The Bears nearly had a 12-yard TD by Marshall, but it was wiped out by an illegal hands to the face penalty on left guard Michael Ola, who started for the injured Matt Slauson. The Jets also blew a possible scoring drive when Smith was intercepted by rookie Kyle Fuller on a poorly thrown pass to David Nelson in the end zone on first-and-10 from the Bears 18. "You cant force it in that situation," Ryan said. "You learn from it." Folks 22-yard field goal late in the third quarter made it 24-16. His 42-yarder with 9:52 remaining got the Jets within five points. NOTES: Bears fullback Tony Fiammetta injured a hamstring and safety Chris Conte hurt his left shoulder. Neither returned. ... Mundy also sat out portions of the game with a shoulder injury.
