this is the first time England have played seven matches in a season. It is also the first time time they have played seven away matches in a row, spending a record 119 days on the road.
This victory equals the record of six
victories in a row. The first time they have won six in a season.
The first time England have scored 39 goals in a season.
Also the
25th clean sheet under the guidance of the
International Select Committee.
For the first time since 1874,
England have a positive statistic in friendly matches. After 23
matches, they have won more friendlies than they have lost.

It was on 14 June 1908
that the Earl of Derby, Frederick Stanley died. As Governor General of
Canada in 1892, he donated a trophy to be competed for in ice hockey.
Although the original trophy was eventually replaced, the National
Hockey League's championship trophy is still known as the Stanley Cup. |
