Trinidad and Tobago defender Brent Sancho insists Peter Crouch's goal in England's 2-0 victory against the Soca Warriors should not have been allowed to stand.

The Gillingham star claims Crouch tugged his dreadlocks as he climbed to head home the opening goal in the 83rd minute from David Beckham's cross.

"The first goal was definitely a foul by Crouch. He was all over my back," said Sancho.

"We are gutted, just gutted with the result. It was really heart-wrenching. The second goal (from Steven Gerrard) came when they hit us on the break as we tried to get back - but the first one was the crucial one so late in the game and I was fouled.

"Crouch was all over me. He was definitely pulling me back and that meant I couldn't get to him.

"But don't forget, we are tiny Trinidad and Tobago and there is no way that the referee (Toru Kamikawa) was going to blow that whistle and disallow the goal."
