Roy Hodgson promises England changes against Costa Rica

Hodgson promises England changes

England manager Roy Hodgson has promised to make changes to his starting XI for Tuesday's World Cup encounter with Costa Rica.

The Three Lions head into the match with nothing to play for as two defeats from their first two games have given them no chance of reaching the second round.

"I will be changing the team to play Costa Rica and giving players who haven't featured in the first two games a chance," Hodgson told reporters on Sunday.

Costa Rica are likely to rest a number of key players for the game after securing their place in the knockout stages with a surprise win over Italy.
