The Toon striker lead from the front at Coventry's Ricoh Arena as England enjoyed a great win in their European Championship qualifier.
Kieran Gibbs and Micah Richards put England in front then Muarem Muarem made it 2-1 at the interval.
But a blistering start to the second half saw Macedonia make it 3-3 in the space of six minutes through Agim Ibraimi and a Gibbs own goal, with Carroll netting for England.
England ran out winners with another from Carroll and a brace from substitute Zavon Hines - on his debut.
