Trinidad & Tobago coach Leo Beenhakker admitted that defeat to England hurt, after his side came within six minutes of earning a point.

Late goals from Peter Crouch and Steven Gerrard left the Soca Warriors heartbroken, after they had more than matched their more illustrious opponents in Nuremberg.

Beenhakker said: "We can live with it, but it always hurts.

"England hit long balls at the beginning and we did a very good job defending, but they have fantastic players and I wish them all the best.

"We knew we could organise our game to survive for a long period. We had some small chances, yes, but that is football."
