Jack Butland confident of Team GB's Olympic quality

Birmingham City goalkeeper Jack Butland has said that he is confident of Great Britain's ability to go far in the Olympics football tournament.

Team GB are in a potentially tough group with Senegal, UA Emirates and Uruguay but the 19-year-old says that the team are not behind others in the competition.

"We've got fantastic quality in this team. It's an Under-23 tournament and it's the same for every team. It's not as if we're behind on anything," he told BBC Sport.

"We've got three fantastic, experienced, over-23 players and a lot of young players who are very skilled, talented and looking to prove themselves. There's no doubt we're here to stay and give it everything to win."

Butland was called up to England's Euro 2012 squad after an injury to John Ruddy.
