England's Welbeck leads European Qualifier scorers

Danny Welbeck is the top scorer in the European Qualifiers, after netting his sixth goal in five games on Friday night. The Arsenal forward is one strike ahead of five-goal pair Northern Ireland's Kyle Lafferty and Germany's Thomas Muller.

Earlier in this campaign, Welbeck scored braces against Switzerland and Slovenia, and also got his name on the scoresheet in a 5-0 thrashing of San Marino, to help England take charge of Group E.
