Fabio Capello says that England will keep on fighting for a place at the Euro 2012 finals despite the disappointing goalless draw with Montenegro.
Wayne Rooney had two huge chances to put England ahead but couldn't capitalise on the chances that came his way, the home side were also denied a penalty.
England did enjoy most of the possession during the match but created very few chances and the strikers of Rooney, Peter Crouch and Kevin Davies were kept quiet.
But England fans hearts were in their mouth in the fading minutes as Montenegro almost took the lead when Milan Jovanovic struck the cross bar from twenty yards.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the match the England manager said: "I am a fighter. It is one game. We have to fight again. I think we are a good team. The goalkeeper was the best player for Montenegro. This is football.
"You have to respect little countries. They have good players. At this moment they are psychologically at a high moment having won three games.
"They were compact. The quality was good. Against Algeria (at the World Cup) we didn't create a lot of chances. Tonight we did create chances."
England are now second in Group G, behind Montenegro, however they do have a game in hand.
