Joleon Lescott not underestimating Sweden and Ukraine

England defender Joleon Lescott has insisted that his side will take Sweden and Ukraine seriously in their remaining Group D matches.

The Manchester City centre-back put the Three Lions ahead as they took a point from a 1-1 draw with France in what was expected to be their most difficult group stage match.

However, the 29-year-old revealed that England will be treating every opponent with the same respect.

"On paper it looks that way but Sweden is not going to be an easy game and Ukraine are the home nation so we have still got two tough games," he said.

"The key is to keep it in our hands and go into each game with everything to play for."

Next up for England in Group D is Sweden on Friday.
