British press says sloppy side found out

England is simply not good enough to compete against the best teams and is just too sloppy to pull off its new expansive approach, Britain's press said on Friday.

Following at 2-1 defeat to Uruguay in Sao Paulo on Thursday that left its World Cup hopes relying on other results, England has shown it cannot handle the pressure when faced with serious opposition, national newspapers said.

Wayne Rooney scored for Roy Hodgson's England, between two emphatically-finished goals by Uruguay's Luis Suarez.
