England boss Roy Hodgson has admitted that he isn't "too disappointed" with his side's 1-1 draw against Montenegro in their World Cup qualifying clash.

Wayne Rooney scored in the sixth minute, although the Three Lions were pegged back by a late goal from Dejan Damjanovic and were forced to settle for a point.

Hodgson told FA.com: "I thought the first half was good but we didn't start the second half as we would have liked to and that gave Montenegro some encouragement.

"I thought we hung on well and finished strongly but during their good spell they got an equaliser and robbed us of a victory.

"But, all things considered, we mustn't be too disappointed. There is a long way to go yet and a draw here is something that allows us to build for the future."

England are second in Group H, two points behind Montenegro with four games to play in qualifying.
