Fraizer Campbell is pictured above during his England debut against
Holland at Wembley Stadium.
On 23rd February 2012, despite only scoring six league goals in four years,
Frazier Campbell received his call-up to the England squad for the friendly
versus the Netherlands. Interim England manager Stuart Pearce had stated
his ambitions to select untried young players for the friendly which would take
place on 29 February. Pearce had given Campbell all 14 of his under-21 caps.
Campbell made his debut as a substitute for Danny Welbeck in the 80th minute,
as England lost 3–2 due to an injury-time game-winning goal by Arjen Robben.
He missed the birth of his first child, as he was making his debut for
England. Campbell's daughter was born at almost exactly the same time as
he came on to
the pitch as a second-half substitute. His wife Emma in time forgave him.
Alas it was his only game for England.
