Steven Gerrard gives England shirt to Newcastle United's Ryan Taylor

Gerrard gives shirt to Taylor

England captain Steven Gerrard decided to hand his shirt to Newcastle United's Ryan Taylor after helping the Three Lions reach the World Cup.

The 33-year-old scored the winner following Wayne Rooney's first-half goal in last night's victory over Poland at Wembley.

Instead of handing his match shirt to a Polish opponent, Gerrard gave his number four top to injured Taylor, who was at Wembley to watch the game.

Taylor posted a photo on Instagram with the message: "Nice touch from the skipper to give me this after the game last night. #hero"
