Man City keeper Hart: England fans deserve a win

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart says England fans deserve a win against Costa Rica.

Hart has apologised for England's early World Cup exit and vowed to do the country proud in their final game before jetting home.

"First and foremost, I would like to thank everyone that have been with us, for making the difficult journey out to Brazil," the England number one said.

"It is hard enough for us to get to the games and look how well treated we are, so I can't imagine what some people have been through, what sacrifices they've made.

"Their presence was felt at the games and the presence of people at home was felt. We are well aware that people moved work times, made a lot of effort to stay up for us, with kids staying up past their bedtime to watch us.

"We would like to thank them for their support. It meant everything to us and obviously we can only apologise that we're not going to take this country any further in the tournament."
