The Whites striker toiled up front without reward or joy, making numerous runs into the area that were not found by team-mates in a side showing 11 changes from the win over Hungary. Gareth Southgate asked the 28-year-old to do what he does for Leeds and Bamford held up his end of the bargain, pressing Andorra's defence, attempting to get on the ball to link the play and offering himself as a target, but all too often it was to no avail as the ball was simply worked sideways or backwards.
Here is how the national media rated his performance in the World Cup Qualifier.
7. Football London - 5
Alan Smith wondered if this might be Bamford's only cap after what he felt was an ineffective performance.
8. BBC readers - 6.33
Leeds United fans may have involved themselves in the voting for this one.
9. Football 365 - NA
No numerical rating but Matthew Stead pointed out Bamford's numerous runs were not found, which he felt led to frustration creeping into the striker's play.
10. The National - 6
Danny Lewis stuck to the facts, listing the few times Bamford got half a sniff of goal, but highlighted there were no real chances.
11. 90 Min - 6
Matt O'Connor-Simpson felt Bamford will be disappointed with his finishing but put in plenty of effort off the ball.
