England international and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 has gone on to claim that he is happy with the way the Three Lions played against Ukraine, despite the team barely managing to draw their game.
The Three Lions went on to concede a goal in the first half, and it seemed like that goal might be enough to force England to lose the game.
However, with only three minutes left on the clock, the referee awarded http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 a penalty. Frank Lampard stepped up to take the spot kick. The veteran made no mistake from the spot, as he sent his effort crashing into the back of the net.
Lampard has gone on to praise the way his team played, and hopes for them to get better from here on.
He also went on to claim that if the referee didn’t rule out Jermain Defoe’s goal in the first half, then England could have picked up all three points from the game.
"These games are not easy and in the end getting a point is a good result considering we were 1-0 down with 10 minutes to go," Lampard told reporters.
"At the start of the game you obviously want to win it but when you consider the circumstances we had a goal disallowed, we hit the post - so in the end we showed great character to get a point.”
"I thought he [the referee] pulled it back for a free kick to us, it wasn't a foul at all so we're very disappointed with that."
The Three Lions will now be taking on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Poland-c2983.
The team is going to be without http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032.
As a result, Lampard will have to use his experience and leadership ability in the middle of the park to spur the team on and make sure they get the best possible result.
It is now going to be a wait till October to see just how the team performs in their upcoming games.
