International Career
Murphy has been capped for England nine times and has scored one goal. He made his debut in a friendly match against Sweden in November 2001, and scored his first international goal in a 4-0 victory over Paraguay in April 2002. Having been called up as a replacement for injured club team-mate Steven Gerrard, he was set to play at the 2002 World Cup, but had to withdraw from the squad after he suffered a metatarsal injury similar to that which had affected England team mates David Beckham and Gary Neville in the run-up to the tournament.
