Frank Lampard: 'Receiving a gold cap will be a special moment'

Chelsea and England midfielder Frank Lampard has admitted that receiving a gold cap for surpassing 100 appearances for his nation will be a "special moment".

The 35-year-old will represent the Three Lions for the 103rd time when they take on Chile in an international friendly at Wembley tomorrow.

"It will be a very special moment for me," Lampard said in a press conference. "To win 100 caps was a long time coming and I've seen gold caps given to Stevie [Gerrard] and Ashley [Cole] and the idea of Sir Geoff being involved came from the FA, but it's one I'm very happy with. I requested my dad was involved as well and he will be very proud."

Lampard will also captain the side in the absence of Steven Gerrard.
