BERLIN (AP):

ENGLAND, SWITZERLAND, the Czech Republic and Portugal earned big wins yesterday, six days before the start of the World Cup.

Peter Crouch led England with three goals and Michael Owen added another in the team's 6-0 win over Jamaica.

The Czechs got two goals from Jan Koller in a 3-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago, who have also qualified for the World Cup. Alexander Frei and Marco Streller scored two goals each to lead Switzerland over China 4-1.

Portugal beat Luxembourg by getting two goals from Simao Sabrosa and one from Luis Figo.

BOTH QUALIFIERS

Also, Poland beat Croatia 1-0 with Euzebiusz Smolarek heading in the lone goal. Both of those teams have also qualified for the World Cup, which opens on Friday in Munich.

Koller, the Czech Republic's all-time leading scorer, scored his 41st and 42nd international goals, both in the first half. Pavel Nedved added the other at the match in Prague.

Koller returned to the national team on Tuesday against Costa Rica after missing almost the entire season due to a knee injury.

"I was very satisfied with Jan Koller," Czech Republic coach Karel Bruckner said. "His play is exactly what we need. I feel very good about him."

It was Trinidad's third straight defeat after losses to Wales and Slovenia. The Czech Republic, who play in Group E with Italy, the United States and Ghana, beat Saudi Arabia and Costa Rica in their warm-ups.

In Zurich, Frei tapped in Raphael Wicky's pass from close range in the 40th minute, and Streller doubled the lead just after halftime.

SCORED FROM PENALTY SPOT

Frei then scored from the penalty spot two minutes later - his 25th goal in 45 matches - after Ludovic Magnin was fouled in the box. Streller added the fourth in the 73rd. China substitute Dong Fangzhuo scored a late consolation goal for the visitors.

Smolarek scored in the 54th minute in Wolfsburg, but Croatia dominated much of the match.

Poland goalkeeper Artur Boruc spilled a 21st-minute free kick by Croatia midfielder Niko Kranjcar and scrambled to punch the rebound out of play. Croatia's Darijo Srna then drew a foul in the 43rd, but put the ensuing free kick onto the crossbar.

Simao scored his first goal in the 46th minute off a rebound after Helder Postiga's shot was stopped by Luxembourg goalkeeper Jonathan Joubert. He added another in the 72nd when Alphonse Leweck tripped Figo in the box to earn Portugal a penalty.

Figo later slipped in a third in the 85th in Metz, France.

Portugal are in Group D at the World Cup with Mexico, Iran and Angola.
