England U21's defeat their Slovak counterparts 2-0 at Sunderland's impressive Stadium of Light ground.
A rather uninspiring display by David Platt's team resulted in few clear-cut chances and it took an own goal from the Slovak's Peter Dolezaj to give the hosts a half time advantage.
The second half followed much the pattern of the first, save for a fine effort by Arsenal's Jermaine Pennant, before Sheffield United's Phil Jagielka netted England's second, with a close range header on 83 minutes.
The result leaves England six points behind leaders, Turkey, who completed a 3-0 home victory over Macedonia 3-0.
Meanwhile, Barcelona agree a deal of around £25 million with Manchester United to take England captain, David Beckham to the spanish city - conditional on terms being agreed with Beckham and the election of Joan Laporta as the new Barcelona president this coming Sunday.
