England skipper Frank Lampard felt they deserved more from their 0-0 draw with Costa Rica.
It could have marked the departing Chelsea midfielder's final game for his country.
The 36-year-old said: "It was a difficult game to approach.
"I think we did everything we could do. We showed a bit of character, we prepared right for the last two days. Everyone knows how tough it's been."
He was asked about his future but said he had not yet made a decision on whether he would retire from international football.
He said: "I don't know. I really enjoyed being involved and I love playing for my country, that's obvious. I am 36 and still doing it.
"I feel fresh. If I feel I can offer something I will do but at the moment it is too soon to say."
