One goal in one game for the England national team (subs only)

Three players that were only capped once have scored when coming on as a substitute in the English national team.

Paul Goddard was the first, scoring in his only cap against Iceland (1-1) at 2 June 1982.

Francis Jeffers did the same thing, scoring in a defeat against Australia in 2003 but without ever getting the chance again, to most Englishmens great joy.

David Nugent made his first and only goal against Andorra in March 2007.

While Goddard and Jeffers will never wear the national team shirts again, Nugent may have a chance. That would exclude him from this list, but perhaps bring him other kinds of joy.
