Wayne Rooney marked his 100th international cap with a goal from the spot as England brushed aside Slovenia 3-1 at Wembley on Saturday.
The Manchester United forward stepped up to score from the spot in the 59th minute to draw the hosts level just one minute after a Jordan Henderson own goal had given the visitors the lead handing the 29-year old his 44th internaional strike to become the joint third-highest England goalscorer of all time.
The hosts soon took advantage of that momentum and took the lead just seven minutes later courtesy of Danny Welbeck s tap in, before the Arsenal striker capped off the win by doubling his tally six minutes later following some good work from Raheem Sterling.
The win preserves England s 100 per cent start to their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign, while Slovenia are now level on points with Switzerland, who ran out 4-0 winners over Lithuania after scoring four goals in the final 24 minutes.
The hosts took the lead courtesy of a Giedrius Arlauskis own goal on 68 minutes, before Fabian Schar doubled the lead seconds later.
A late brace from Xherdan Shaqiri wrapped up the win, which leaves the Swiss firmly in touch with the Group E summit.
Bottom side San Marino made history with a shock 0-0 draw at home to Estonia to earn their first ever point in a UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying campaign and only their fourth competitive clean sheet.
Another side to cause a stir were Liechtenstein, who secured a shock of their own in the form of a 1-0 win over Moldova.
A superb second-half free-kick from captain Franz Burgmeier was enough to hand the visitors victory, their first since 2012.
At the top of Group G, Austria ended Russia s unbeaten run with a well-earned 1-0 win in Vienna.
Rubin Okotie, the 1860 Munich striker, came off the bench to seal the win 17 minutes from time, turning in a Martin Harnik cross in from close range, preserving his side s unbeaten start to the campaign.
The result leaves Marcel Koller s side four points clear of nearest rivals Sweden, who were held to a 1-1 draw by Montenegro.
In Group C, a stunning strike from Isco managed to inspire Spain to a comfortable 3-0 win over Belarus in the first international match to be held at the Estadio Nuevo Colombino.
The Real Madrid star was on hand after 18 minutes to curl home a superb 30-yard strike, before goals from Sergio Busquets and Pedro wrapped up the win.
The win leaves Vicente del Bosque s side level on points with Ukraine, who secured a routine 3-0 win away to Luxembourg.
However, Slovakia continue to top the group after securing a fourth straight win with a 2-0 victory away to Macedonia, leaving them three points clear of Spain at the top.
