MIAMI (Reuters) - Roy Hodgson was left frustrated after England failed to win either of their World Cup warm-up matches in Miami, though he claimed he did not read much into the results and was relieved there were no more injuries.

Lacklustre England were held to a 0-0 stalemate by Honduras on Saturday before jetting off to Rio de Janeiro having played out an entertaining 2-2 draw with Ecuador on Wednesday.
