RATER POLL: 57% of you think England can reach the semi-final. Either Portugal or Holland will have something to say about that in Gelshenkirchen on Saturday 1 July. The match will be live on BBC television, radio and broadband.

1800 BST: "Knowing we can do better and that we're in the quarter-final is very good. Now we have six days before the quarter-final. Every game is more and more difficult but I'm confident we'll improve and we have a good chance to go all the way."
Sven-Goran Eriksson

1759 BST: "It was an ugly performance but it's what we'd have taken before the game. We know we've got to improve but we're going through and we're very happy."
David Beckham

1758 BST: "The man of the match was Michael Carrick, who gave a cracking display of the holding role. Left foot, right foot, it was a masterclass of passing. And the energy levels of Wayne Rooney were amazing."
Alan Hansen BBC Sport TV

1757 BST: "A very proud day here. Half this crowd is leaving looking disconsolate, but the rest are celebrating an achievement nobody expected. There was stunned silence when England scored. After the first-half they thought they could do it."
Steve Kingstone, BBC Five Live in Quito, Ecuador

1755 BST "England fans stay in the ground to sing along to 'Three Lions'. And the Ecuador fans are joining in."
Chris Charles, BBC Sport in Stuttgart

PLAYER RATER: Ashley Cole takes the honours with a mark of 7.24, but overall the hard-working Carlos "Super Teno" Tenorio is your man of the match on 8.09.

1753 BST: England's fans are having a party in the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion. Next stop Gelshenkirchen with Portugal or Holland in wait.

"England are going through to the quarter-finals and quite honestly there's not a lot more you can say about this game."
Graham Taylor, BBC Five Live Sport

FULL-TIME: It wasn't the best of matches but as far as England are concerned the job is done.

90 + 3 mins: Ecuador pass the ball into touch and that will be that. England have a free-kick and are back down by the corner flag.

90 + 2 mins: Steven Gerrard makes way for Stewart Downing.

90 + 1 min: England kill time at the corner flag and win a free-kick before earning a corner. It is short again. They are playing out the clock as best they can.

89 mins: Wayne Rooney releases Aaron Lennon who is diligently marshalled to the byline by Ivan Hurtado. The England man wins a corner.

87 mins: Neicer Reasco races into the England area and pulls it back for Luis Valencia who slams a shot wide. Aaron Lennon replaces David Beckham and the captain's armband is handed to John Terry.

"England fans are already starting to celebrate a place in the last eight."
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Stuttgart

85 mins: Paul Robinson's back on his feet and the time out gives England's players a chance to take on fluids.

83 mins: England are far from home and hosed. Neicer Reasco floats a cross over which evades all in white and yellow. There's an injury problem in goal though as Paul Robinson is down clutching his leg.

82 mins: Another England yellow card for time-wasting. Step forward Jamie Carragher.

81 mins: It is the Wayne Rooney and Frank Lampard show again in attack but there is no end proiduct, something that is becoming far to familiar. Cristian Mora dives off his line to cut out the ball.

80 mins: Ulises De la Cruz is afforded far too much space on the right. His high, hanging cross is too deep.

78 mins: Sloppy England defending allows Edison Mendez a sight of goal. He fires wide. Paul Robinson is given a yellow card for delaying the goal-kick.

77 mins: A first change for England. Jamie Carragher replaces Joe Cole. The Liverpool man goes to right-back and Owen Hargreaves slots into a holding midfield role.

75 mins: England are finally playing at pace. The ball breaks for Wayne Rooney on the right. His shot takes a slight deflection off Neicer Reasco but is at a comfortable height for keeper Cristian Mora.

73 mins: Wayne Rooney leaves Ivan Hurtado for dead on the right flank. He bears down on goal and lays the ball back for Frank Lampard, but the combination again fails to come up trumps with Lampard blazing over.

72 mins: A second enforced change with Carlos Tenorio going off to be replaced by former Crystal Palace man Ivan Kaviedes. One of his nicknames is The Inseminator as it was claimed three women were once pregnant by him at the same time. His other nickname is El Nine - maybe we should stick with that.

71 mins: Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney again fail to link up. Lampard's pass across the back of the defence from the right is ahead of his team-mate.

69 mins: Carlos Tenorio - Super Teno - wins a free-kick deep by the corner flag. There are Tenorios all over the place. Edwin's going off to be replaced by Christian Lara who has been dubbed as Ecuador's version of Robinho. Carlos looks as if he's going off as well with an injury. Nothing comes from the free-kick.

66 mins: Ulises De La Cruz is booked. Just 24 hours after Olof Mellberg's Sweden were dumped out of the World Cup the Ecuadorian is 24 minutes away from joining his Aston Villa team-mate in being eliminated.

65 mins: Rio Ferdinand misses a cross from the right and Agustin Delgado lays it back to Luis Valencia who forces a good diving save from Paul Robinson.

64 mins: Frank Lampard races forward and unselfishly squares it to Wayne Rooney, but the pass is slightly mis-directed and the move breaks down.

63 mins: David Beckham looks as if he has been sick on the pitch. Hardly international football. Looks more like Big Dave down on Hackney Marshes after a heavy Saturday night.

61 mins: England's fans come alive but the goal is bad news for Peter Crouch who was set to come on. He remains rooted to the bench.

60 mins: GOAL England 1-0 Ecuador
England make the breakthrough and it is David Beckham. The skipper curls a free-kick over the wall from the left of the area and while keeper Cristian Mora gets his fingertips to the ball he is unable to keep it out at the right-hand post. Beckham becomes the first Englishman to score in three World Cups.

57 mins: Frank Lampard dinks a pass forward for Wayne Rooney but the England man is caught in an Ecuador sandwich and Geovanny Espinoza and Ivan Hurtado crowd him out.

"Peter Crouch and Stewart Downing have started warming up on the side of the pitch."
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Stuttgart

56 mins: A corner to Ecuador. Edison Mendez scoops his effort deep, all the way across the penalty area and out for a throw.

54 mins: Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard get in the way of each other on the edge of the area and Ecuador break. Agustin Delgado blazes a wild cross behind the goal.

"It looks like Steven Gerrard has been detailed to give Joe Cole more help on England's left, prompting a couple of early threats. Sven-Goran Eriksson is likely to give this about another 15 minutes and if there is no improvement, surely he must consider the introduction of Aaron Lennon, who was so successful against Trinidad and Tobago, and possibly even Peter Crouch."
Phil McNulty, BBC Sport in Stuttgart

53 mins: Wayne Rooney drifts out to the right but is surrounded by three men. There's no way through for him.

52 mins: Joe Cole barges into Ulises De la Cruz. The Aston Villa man stays down but there's none of this Fancy Dan rolling about. He reclines on his left side in conversation with Wayne Rooney as if he's on a sunlounger down at the hotel pool.

50 mins: That's better from England. Wayne Rooney flicks the ball off the outside of his boot to Steven Gerrard but nobody is up with play to get on the end of his cross from the left.

PLAYER RATER: The best England player on show? Ashley Cole according to you. Not surprisingly you rank him the 12th best player on the pitch.

47 mins: Ecuador resume the better and string a number of passes together before Edison Mendez finds himself in acres of space. His shot on goal is blocked.

1702 BST: Here we go again. England have shown time and again in recent outings that they are a first-half team. Ecuador have scored three of their five World Cup goals in the second half. Make of that what you will.

1700 BST: The teams are back out and there are no changes from either side.

"I'm very concerned by Wayne Rooney. He's been told to stay central but doesn't look happy. He needs someone to play off. O
