Joe Cole is marshalled closely by Oliver Konsa as he tries to conjure an early opening for England
Former captain David Beckham returns to competitive action and sees his free-kick go just wide of Mart Poom's goal
The visitors look more dangerous in the opening period and find Poom on hand to thwart Michael Owen
England's under-fire manager Steve McClaren encourges his players as they search for the all-important breakthrough
With almost half an hour played, Konsa goes close for Estonia before Poom saves at the other end to deny England again
The deadlock ends in the 37th minute when Peter Crouch heads a throw to Cole who then fires home on the turn
Nine minutes into the second half, a superb ball by Beckham finds Crouch who nods the ball over Poom and into the net
The visitors have a third soon after when Owen converts another pinpoint cross from Beckham
Having done his job, and nursing a small knock, Beckham is substituted to the sound of applause from the travelling fans
With Russia holding Croatia in Zagreb, the 3-0 win leaves McClaren's side just three points from a qualifying spot
