But Gordon said afterwards:   "Friendly or not, playing for England you want to win every game. I thought it was useful practice for us though. I thought we controlled the game and got into some good positions but just a lack of quality in the final third. 

"I think for me personally I've trained once in four weeks so I felt a little rusty. I think the front four or three haven't played together yet. It's just getting used to each other and the more time we train together we'll be fine."

He added, "We'll always prepare as much as we can. We've seen a couple of things there which caused us some problems and we'll get to go away and see how we can do better."
