Tottenham winger Townsend: Pace can be England World Cup weapon

Tottenham winger Andros Townsend feels pace can be England's weapon in the World Cup.

Townsend is one of several pacy players included in Roy Hodgson's 30-man squad for the Wembley friendly against Denmark.

"We've got some great youngsters coming through who have pace and not many other teams have that outlet," said Townsend.

"So many attacking players in the squad are quick, so that is an asset we have and hopefully we can put it to good use in the summer."
