Man City keeper Hart released from England squad

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has been released from the England squad.

Hart has been sent back to Manchester City and will play no part in Tuesday's friendly with Scotland, Roy Hodgson has confirmed.

The omission of Hart from the squad means that either Southampton's Fraser Forster or West Brom's Ben Foster will get the chance to show the England manager what they can do for the national team.

Hart kept his regular berth in the England starting XI for the win against Slovenia, but after conceding his first goal of the qualifying campaign, he was granted some extra time off and will return to his club.
