Hodgson says England can still top group after Montenegro draw

Manager Roy Hodgson says England are "still in control" of Group H following their 1-1 draw with Montenegro in Tuesday's World Cup qualifier.

Despite revealing the squad "felt they could have won" the match after a strong first half, Hodgson insists the "group is still there to be won" with his team lying two points behind Montenegro with four matches remaining.

Wayne Rooney's header gave England an early lead in Podgorica, but Montenegro equalised with 13 minutes remaining through Dejan Damjanovic.
