Chelsea's Lampard wary of Ukraine challenge

Chelsea ace Frank Lampard is wary of England's next opponents, Ukraine.

Lampard netted the first two goals in England's 5-0 win in Moldova on Friday night, with Jermain Defoe, Leighton Baines and James Milner also on target.

He said: "Ukraine are a quality team, they showed that in glimpses in the game during the European Championships.

"It was a pretty impressive performance and a tough match for the team even though we got the win.

"They are certainly going to come to Wembley with intentions to make it difficult for us and show what they are about, so we will have to be on top form.

"We need to rest up, prepare right and try and keep the level of performance we are producing."
