Man City keeper Hart happy to take England penalties

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart says he'll happily take a penalty for England in the World Cup.

It was at the UEFA European Under 21 Championship in 2009 that the goalkeeper converted during the shootout victory over Sweden - and he also tucked one away for Manchester City against LA Galaxy.

"I'd be confident enough to take one," he said. "I'd never say no if I was asked and you never know - I've seen it happen before.

"I quite enjoy taking them and, although it probably won't come down to me, I'd have no problem. I've done it before."
