Wayne Rooney, sent off on his previous trip to Podgorica, headed in Steven Gerrard's early corner, having already hit the post with a chip.

But the hosts responded after the break with Stevan Jovetic heading just wide before Dejan Damjanovic equalised.

Mirko Vucinic wasted several chances as Montenegro stayed top of the group.
