Roy Hodgson: 'England are right on course'

Hodgson: 'England are right on course'

England boss Roy Hodgson believes that his side are right on course in their qualifying campaign for Euro 2016.

The Three Lions maintained their 100% record after four games as they came from behind to defeat Slovenia 3-1 at Wembley thanks to a brace from Danny Welbeck and a Wayne Rooney strike.

Hodgson has revealed that his only disappointment so far was England conceding their first goal of the qualifying process, when Jordan Henderson put the ball into his own net at Wembley on Saturday.

"Our goal before this game was to go into the New Year with 12 points, unbeaten," Hodgson told reporters.

"The only disappointment I suppose is that we now can no longer boast about having a clean sheet, but I suppose we still can boast that no opponent has scored against us because we put the ball in our own goal for them."

England are next in action against Scotland in a friendly at Celtic Park on Tuesday.
