Steven Gerrard eyes clean sweep

Gerrard eyes clean sweep

England captain Steven Gerrard has insisted that his side need to win all of their remaining games in order to top Group H and qualify for next year's World Cup in Brazil.

The Three Lions slumped to a 1-1 draw against group leaders Montenegro on Tuesday night, which has left them two points behind their opponents in second.

Gerrard is adamant that his side, who sit four points clear of both Poland and Ukraine having played a game more, cannot afford any more slip-ups.

"We're still confident we can finish top of the group," Gerrard told Sky Sports News. "We need to win all our games, we certainly need to improve on that second half performance and play like we did in the first half.

"We certainly need to get three points when we go to Ukraine in September and we need perfect results at home."

Wayne Rooney put England ahead in the match before Dejan Damjanovic's second-half equaliser.
