Liverpool striker Sturridge pleased with England form

Liverpool striker Danny Sturridge shrugged his wonder goal for England in their friendly win over Peru.

Sturridge revelled little in his goal, with a victory the only thing on his mind.

"I'm more worried about the team," he said. "I'm more worried about helping the team win games. Whether I score, whether anybody else scores... it doesn't matter.

"It's about winning games, it's about getting results, it's about working as a team.

"We take the praise as a team and when things go badly we lose as a team, so it's not about individuals.

"Never, if I score goals, will I take the praise because there's always somebody else who's played a part in it."
