Chelsea defender Gary Cahill admits there was a lot of frustration inside the England locker room after their World Cup defeat to Italy.
He admitted the heat and humidity were punishing in the jungle city of Manaus.
"We can take a lot of positives from that," said Cahill. "I thought we played well. We started the way we wanted to start. We knew they had players who wanted to get on the ball. They have some very good players but we started the game really brightly, did well and there wasn't too much we did wrong.
"Unfortunately we were on the losing team but two good teams went at it. We had more joy second half. We had more possession, we were well in the game and I thought Italy found it difficult in the second half. We had a feeling out there that if we'd scored we could have gone on. We didn't. Sometimes it's cruel."
