He added: 'It was about the whole team tonight. I was lucky enough to be out there with those players.'
England coach Sven Goran Eriksson said: 'It was a very good evening. I always said and always believed we could beat Germany but I could not believe 5-1. It was too much the difference between the teams was maybe not so big.'
'We played very well, we played some beautiful balls and showed we have a very good spirit when we went one down.'
'We did not play well for the first five or 10 minutes but after that we got better and better.'
But Eriksson sounded a note of caution ahead of the qualifier against Albania at St James' Park on Wednesday.
'We have a difficult and dangerous game on Wednesday. This was a great result but after such a victory it would be crazy to lose things.'
Germany coach Rudi Voeller was unable to attend the post-match press conference after it emerged that his father had suffered a heart attack as he watched the game at the Olympic Stadium.
Deputy coach Michael Skibbe attended instead of Voeller and said: 'It was very sad what happened to Rudi's father.'
Erikkson also expressed his sympathy, saying: 'Some things are more important than football.'
Voeller's father, Kurt, was said to be in a stable condition.
