England looked tired - Hangeland

Fulham defender Brede Hangeland claims England looked tired against his Norway side and he feels Sweden will defeat them at Euro 2012.

The 31-year-old central defender faced Roy Hodgson's Three Lions in the former Cottagers boss' first game in charge of his country in Oslo on Saturday evening as a goal from Ashley Young was enough to hand the visitors a 1-0 win in the friendly contest. However, England seemed to fade throughout the second half and Hangeland feels the long, hard Premier League campaign has not helped the players to prepare for the tournament in Poland and Ukraine. As a result Hangeland would not be surprised if their group rivals and Norway's Scandinavian neighbours Sweden defeated them in the finals on June 15. He said: "Sweden have a good chance. "It's a good England team but they look a little worn after a long season. "It's not good preparation for the Euros to play such a tough season. "Even if it was a friendly, you could see that the English players need a break."
