That's a wrap!
While Craig Bellamy and his players head back to Wales to prepare for Monday's huge World Cup qualifier with Belgium in Cardiff (19:45 BST), England can start planning for next Tuesday's qualifier away to Latvia.
If results go their way over the next few days, a win in Riga could confirm the Three Lions' place at the next summer's World Cup.

The job was done in the first half.
It was about attitude and application to start the game quickly, to show your quality, and almost have an arrogance that you're the better team.
The work-rate off the ball was incredible from the England players. Comfortably job done at half-time.

"We moved the ball quickly. We needed to be patient and we did. You can see the manager's values and how he wants us to be.
On how Thomas Tuchel wants England to play: "He makes that very clear. We showed that today, maybe not so much towards the end."

It has been vindicated. The players named could start a match for England, but he has got big decisions to make.
His job isn't to make players happy. His job is to come in and win a World Cup for England. That is the difficult job he has got to do. The difficult part is you're going to upset people, you're going to get people in the press asking about your decisions.
So far, the big decisions he has made have paid off, and it is looking in really good shape for England so far.

To Tuchel, you probably didn’t hear more from the fans because the second half was boring.

England boss Thomas Tuchel, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "We only had one and a half days to prepare against a complicated opponent. To shut them down in the way we shut them down demands a lot of effort.
"The team bought into these ideas, and they made the effort for each other. So I am very pleased with the performance. We should have score more in the in the first half. We could have scored in the second half, but we didn't.
"They had a lot of changes, and we had a lot of changes, and it cost us a little bit with the rhythm, but overall, the next step in the right direction.
"We now have a day off, and we will enjoy the feeling. The players truly know what they put into the game for it to look like that."
On starting fast: "The spirit, the mindset is right, so they love to play this kind of football. It is a brave approach, and it takes a lot of effort, but they are happy to do that.
"We are nearly playing like a club team – very flexible, but staying true to our structure. Everyone buys into their role and is ready to do invisible work and help each other. I am very happy with the next step."

Tuchel’s comments about Wembley are valid, but misunderstood. Football fans don’t come to Wembley to see the national team; we’re not the target market sadly. The tickets are marketed at tourists, families with kids and casual fans. Not noise makers!

That first half is as close as you will get to perfection at international level.
In the second half you have got to understand Wales have got good players. There is Premier League players out there and they will create opportunities.
You strive for perfection, but you never get it.

Tuchel needs to chill out about the atmosphere, it's only a friendly where the game was won at half-time. He's in danger of alienating the fans going after them like that.

"The way we came out of the traps, on the front foot and I think we were really good. We wanted to continue from the last camp and build on it. Maybe in the second half we dropped off, but ultimately it is about winning games and getting a rhythm and that's what we're doing.
"Different team, but the same ideas and the same mindset. The players that come in or don't come in we know what we're doing. It is a lovely environment to be and it is very nice to be in this team."
On scoring his first England goal: "Not much to be honest! It hit my foot and deflected in. The feeling when it hit the back of the net was a lovely feeling. Eight caps too long, but it is nice to get one and hopefully many more.
"I was making sure I get that goal, making sure I'm a threat to the opposition and to get that goal is really lovely."
On being part of Thomas Tuchel's team: "It a nice feeling. When he came in it was a fresh slate for everyone.
"There is probably 40-50 players showing what they're about, and it is a privilege to be here. I want to maintain my performances here and at the club. That's ultimately what I want to do.
"You see his credentials. He has come in here, and he has ideas of playing and to be able to fit into that is a nice feeling."
"Difficult to sleep after games, but I'll have to try!"

A great first half from England. Some may think that the second half was boring BUT we had beaten them by half-time and in a friendly it's not necessary to demolish the opposition when they play a World Cup qualifier next week.

More from England boss Thomas Tuchel, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live on Declan Rice, Elliot Anderson and Morgan Rogers: "First of all they're very good players and they love to play with each other. Declan is on an extraordinary level at club and international level.
"Really outstanding, the intelligence, the work ethic and the volume Declan puts into every game is just outstanding.
"Morgan and Elliot are humble players and very talented and that is a very good mix."

We're in a booth so we can't gauge the atmosphere but it was mentioned on our commentary about the atmosphere a few times how good the Wales fans were.
To be honest with you, you have to agree if that's what he's said or that's what he's feeling around the ground, then they do need to do better from the England fans because I thought the performance warranted that. I think it warranted a good response from the fans. It's disappointing he's felt that.

I can totally see what Tuchel means, Wembley is never a great atmosphere. The England fans are brilliant on away days and major tournaments, and even in stadiums around the country. Wembley just doesn't lend itself to a good atmosphere at England games, been the same for a long time.

England boss Thomas Tuchel, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "I stand by this statement. We cannot do more than being 3-0 in a derby. I would have wished for a bit more support in phases where it gets difficult. In the second half to get behind us, there was a bit too much support for Wales.
"It could have helped us to regain energy, but it is what it is and that is it."

BBC Sport Wales at Wembley
Craig Bellamy had actually picked a strong team - a demonstration of how seriously he was taking the game - but friendly or otherwise, the first 45 minutes were the worst of his tenure.
There was a slight improvement in the second half as Bellamy replaced several first-team players to protect them for Monday's World Cup qualifier with Belgium, and the substitutes injected some much-needed energy and urgency into what had been a listless performance.
But by that stage, with more than an hour gone, the game was well beyond Wales.
That did nothing to deter the 7,000 or so Wales fans at Wembley, who waved their shirts above their heads and created a joyous atmosphere in spite of what they were witnessing on the field.

Morgan Rogers scores from close range to give England a third-minute lead
Rogers' Aston Villa team-mate Ollie Watkins - in for injured captain Harry Kane - doubles England's lead eight minutes later
Bukayo Saka scores a brilliant third for England with a curling finish after 20 minutes
England delivered another exciting attacking display to outclass an out-of-sorts Wales and stroll to victory in a friendly at Wembley.
Head coach Thomas Tuchel kept faith with the squad that secured the best win of his reign when beating Serbia 5-0 in the World Cup qualifier in Belgrade in September - and they delivered in style once more.
England ran Wales ragged in the opening stages, establishing a three-goal lead inside only 20 minutes.
Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers built on his excellent display in Serbia by turning home the opening goal from Marc Guehi's cross after three minutes, with club team-mate Ollie Watkins making the most of his chance to deputise for injured captain Harry Kane by doubling England's lead from close range eight minutes later.
Bukayo Saka then became Arsenal's highest England goalscorer with a spectacular strike, curled high past Wales keeper Karl Darlow with his left foot. It was his 13th goal for his country.
Rogers also hit the woodwork after the break and, while Wales improved as England's tempo dropped, this was a routine and impressive win for Tuchel's side.
The Three Lions now move on to face Latvia in their next World Cup qualifier in Riga on Tuesday while Wales host Belgium in Cardiff on Monday.

England's emphatic win must be placed in the context that it came in the face of a desperately poor Wales performance, Craig Bellamy's side giving every impression that their attention was focused on Monday's crucial World Cup qualifier against Belgium.
This was still another resounding victory, however, the platform set by an opening characterised by the intensity and attacking variety that was missing in the early stages of Tuchel's reign.
Much has been made of Tuchel's decision to exclude Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham, despite the player's wish to be included, but in his absence Villa's Rogers justified that choice with another fine performance.
He scored the opener, his first for England, had a hand in Watkins' second, then also hit the woodwork before being substituted after 69 minutes.
Watkins will also have been delighted to get on the scoresheet, although he went off at half-time after colliding with the post after missing another opportunity.
It was also a big night for Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who beat his and Gordon Banks' record of seven successive clean sheets for England, ensuring he achieved that record with fine second-half saves from David Brooks and Chris Mepham.
Tougher tests lie ahead for England, starting against Latvia in Riga on Tuesday, but this was another very satisfactory night for Tuchel.
Highly anticipated as any meeting between these neighbouring nations might be, the bigger picture for Wales was always the Belgium match.
As preparation for that game and future major tournaments, Bellamy chose England for this friendly because he wanted to expose his players to world-class opposition.
With his team trailing 3-0 after only 20 minutes, he may have been regretting his decision.
Wales were completely overwhelmed by their rampant hosts and, rather than pressing high and attacking as Bellamy demands of his players, they were woefully passive as they were penned back in their own half.
The head coach had actually picked a strong team - a demonstration of how seriously he was taking the game - but friendly or otherwise, the first 45 minutes were the worst of his tenure.
There was a slight improvement in the second half as Bellamy replaced several first-team players to protect them for the Belgium match, and the substitutes injected some much-needed energy and urgency into what had been a listless performance.
But by that stage, with more than an hour gone, the game was well beyond Wales.
That did nothing to deter the 7,000 or so Wales fans at Wembley, who waved their shirts above their heads and created a joyous atmosphere in spite of what they were witnessing on the field.
The real judgement for Wales will come on Monday. Only after their World Cup qualifier against Belgium will they know if this Wembley experiment will have been worth it.
